Research on mixed emotions is flourishing but fractured. Several psychological subfields are working in parallel and separately from other disciplines also studying mixed emotions, which has led to a disorganized literature. In this article, we provide an overview of the literature on mixed emotions and discuss factors contributing to the lack of integration within and between fields. We present an organizing framework for the literature of mixed emotions on the basis of two distinct goals: solving the bipolar–bivariate debate and understanding the subjective experience of mixed emotions. We also present a personalized perspective that can be used when studying the subjective experience of mixed emotions. We emphasize the importance of assessing both state and trait emotions (e.g., momentary emotions, general levels of affect) alongside state and trait context (e.g., physical location, culture). We discuss three methodological approaches that we believe will be valuable in building a new mixed-emotions literature—inductive research methods, idiographic models of emotional experiences, and empirical assessment of emotion-eliciting contexts. We include recommendations throughout on applying these methods to research on mixed emotions, and we conclude with avenues for future interdisciplinary research. We hope that this perspective will foster research that results in the organized accumulation of knowledge about mixed emotions.

盘点和前进：混合情绪的个性化视角

对混合情绪的研究正在蓬勃发展，但又支离破碎。一些心理学子领域与其他研究混合情绪的学科平行且分开工作，这导致了文献杂乱无章。在本文中，我们概述了有关混合情绪的文献，并讨论了导致领域内部和领域之间缺乏整合的因素。我们基于两个不同的目标提出了混合情绪文献的组织框架：解决双极-双变量辩论和理解混合情绪的主观体验。我们还提出了一种个性化的观点，可以在研究混合情绪的主观体验时使用。我们强调评估状态和特质情绪的重要性（例如，瞬间情绪，情感的一般水平）以及状态和特征背景（例如，物理位置，文化）。我们讨论了三种我们认为在构建新的混合情绪文献中有价值的方法论方法——归纳研究方法、情绪体验的具体模型和情绪诱发情境的实证评估。我们在整个过程中都包含了关于将这些方法应用于混合情绪研究的建议，并且我们总结了未来跨学科研究的途径。我们希望这种观点将促进研究，从而有组织地积累有关混合情绪的知识。情绪体验的具体模型，以及情绪诱发情境的实证评估。我们在整个过程中都包含了关于将这些方法应用于混合情绪研究的建议，并且我们总结了未来跨学科研究的途径。我们希望这种观点将促进研究，从而有组织地积累有关混合情绪的知识。情绪体验的具体模型，以及情绪诱发情境的实证评估。我们在整个过程中都包含了关于将这些方法应用于混合情绪研究的建议，并且我们总结了未来跨学科研究的途径。我们希望这种观点将促进研究，从而有组织地积累有关混合情绪的知识。
