Three studies (total N = 501) showed a negative association between loneliness and the emotion of being moved. People who were lonelier than others consistently reported a weaker feeling of being moved after experimental manipulation. These results appeared both when the participants were presented with selected stimuli (video clips paradigm in Study 1 and Study 3) and when they were allowed to freely recall moving episodes from their past (episode paradigm in Study 2). This association remained reliable after controlling for depression, empathy, and initial mood. The more lonely the participants in Study 1 were, the less they considered themselves susceptible to being moved in everyday life. The results of Study 3 suggest that the association between loneliness and being moved is mediated by lonely people’s lack of faith in others’ goodwill and altruism. The results are discussed from the perspective of the potential causes and effects of loneliness and also in the context of the determinants of being moved.

三项研究（共N = 501) 表明孤独感与被感动的情绪之间存在负相关。比其他人更孤独的人在实验操作后一直报告说被感动的感觉较弱。这些结果出现在参与者被选择的刺激（研究 1 和研究 3 中的视频剪辑范例）和他们被允许自由回忆过去的移动情节（研究 2 中的情节范例）时。在控制了抑郁、同理心和初始情绪后，这种关联仍然可靠。研究 1 中的参与者越孤独，他们就越不认为自己在日常生活中容易受到感动。研究 3 的结果表明，孤独感与被感动之间的关联是由孤独的人对他人的善意和利他主义缺乏信心所介导的。
