这项研究评估了一种新的方法，用于评估配价自参考处理 (SRP) 与其他参考处理 (ORP) 的比较。参与者在某些试验中查看自己的照片，在另一些试验中查看同性陌生人的照片，这些照片混合在有价词之间。参与者在看到各自的图片时在内部排练“我是”或“他/她是”并阅读配价词，从而在不同的试验中将自我/他人与积极/消极联系起来。参与者自我监控他们的情感反应，并通过按钮按下响应时间（RT）间接测量他们的注意力程度和/或内部言语/阅读速度。 91 名年轻人的结果显示，调查评级存在自我积极偏差，SRP 期间的情感反应比 ORP 更强，SRP 期间的 RI 比 ORP 更慢，正价期间的 RT 比负价更慢。负价与正价试验的 SRP 之间以及负价试验的 SRP 与 ORP 之间的差异分数在调查评分、情感反应和 RT 之间相关。最后，现象学报告的内容分析表明，任务条件在 SRP 和 ORP 期间不同程度地引发了许多社会情感体验（例如嫉妒-羡慕、同情-怜悯、善意/骄傲）。我们讨论了该任务在人格和个体差异研究中的潜在应用。 (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. 保留所有权利。
This study evaluated a new methodology for assessing valenced Self-Referential Processing (SRP) in comparison with Other-Referential Processing (ORP). Participants viewed pictures of themselves during certain trials and same-gender strangers during others, intermixed between valenced words. Participants internally-rehearsed the words "I am" or "He/she is" when presented with the respective pictures and read the valenced words, thereby associating the self/other with positivity/negativity on different trials. Participants self-monitored their affective response, and their degree of attention and/or rate of internal speech/reading speed was measured indirectly via button-press response time (RT). Results in 91 young adults demonstrated a self-positivity bias in survey ratings, stronger affective responses during SRP than ORP, slower RI during SRP than ORP, and slower RT during positive than negative valence. Difference scores between SRP of negative- vs. positive-valence trials, and between SRP vs. ORP of negative-valence trials, were correlated among survey ratings, affective responses, and RT. Finally, content analyses of phenomenological reports showed that task conditions differentially provoked a number of socioemotional experiences during both SRP and ORP (e.g., jealousy-envy, sympathy-pity, good will/pride). We discuss potential applications of the task in the study of personality and individual differences. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
