这项研究解决了两个问题:情绪的每日波动是否呈现出7天(周而复始)的周期,以及在人们的情绪对这种每周周期的影响程度上,是否存在可靠的个体差异?对84个场合的日常情绪的频谱分析表明,74名大学生的情绪时间组织具有很强的每周节律。一个周期为7天的正弦波可以解释每日情绪数据的40%的方差。受试者的情绪对这一周节律的反应也存在个体差异。我们预测,外向的人(与内向的人相比)应该更少地受到每周周期的影响。结果表明,外向者的新奇和寻求感觉的行为很可能会降低他们日常情绪的周期性可预测性。讨论了七天工作制的由来和心理意义。(数据库记录(C)2016 APA,版权所有)
This study addressed two questions: Do daily fluctuations in mood exhibit a 7-day (circaseptum) cycle, and are there reliable individual differences in how entrained peoples' moods are to such a weekly cycle? Spectral analysis of daily mood over 84 occasions revealed a strong weekly rhythm in the temporal organization of mood in a sample of 74 undergraduates. A sine wave with a period of 7 days accounted for 40% of the variance in the daily mood data. Individual differences were also found in how entrained subjects' moods were to this weekly rhythm. We predicted that extraverts (compared with introverts) should be less entrained to a weekly cycle. Results suggest that the novelty-and sensation-seeking behavior of extraverts most likely serves to lessen the cyclical predictability of their day-to-day moods. The origin and psychological meaning of the 7-day week are discussed.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
