痛苦不耐受(DI),即无法忍受压力经历,与多种精神疾病和适应不良的应对模式有关。虽然DI通常被认为是一个类似特质的变量,但有证据表明,DI的自我报告和行为指数可以受到情境因素的影响。考虑到这些假定的特质类测量在很短的时间间隔内出现了意想不到的差异,了解这些背景影响是很重要的。本研究考察了情境(通过启动“无休止”和“简短”的概念来操纵)对预测行为持续性的影响,与自我报告的DI有关。结果表明,启动时间越短,终止冷加压任务的速度越快。自我报告的DI与较早终止有关,但自我报告的DI与启动条件之间没有交互作用。结果表明,情境线索对DI的行为测量有调节作用。因此,依赖关系模型在理解依赖关系测量中的可变性时,应该同时考虑特质因素和情境因素。
Distress intolerance (DI), the inability to tolerate stressful experiences, has been linked to multiple psychiatric conditions and maladaptive coping patterns. Although DI is often considered a trait-like variable, evidence indicates that self-report and behavioral indices of DI can be manipulated by contextual factors. Understanding such contextual influences is important given evidence of unexpected variability in these presumed trait-like measures over brief intervals. The current study examined the influence of context (manipulated by priming concepts of “Interminability” and “Brevity”) in predicting behavioral persistence, in relation to self-reported DI. Results indicated that priming Brevity was associated with terminating a cold-pressor task more quickly. Self-reported DI was linked to earlier termination, but there was no interaction between self-reported DI and priming condition. Results indicate that contextual cues modulate performance on behavioral measures of DI. Hence, models of DI should consider both trait-like and contextual factors in understanding variability in DI measures.
