不确定性和情绪是日常生活中不可避免的一部分，对心理健康起着至关重要的作用。然而，我们对不确定性和情绪如何相互作用的理解是有限的。在这里，进行了一项在线调查（n = 231），以研究是否不确定性唤起和调节一系列的消极和积极的情绪。数据显示，不确定性主要与负面情绪状态有关，如恐惧/焦虑。然而，也发现不确定性会调节各种其他负面因素（即，悲伤/不安、愤怒/沮丧和困惑）和积极（即，惊讶/兴趣和兴奋/热情）情绪状态，取决于预期结果的效价（即，负的和正的）和不确定性的子参数（即，风险和模糊性）。不确定性增加了消极情绪状态的强度，降低了积极情绪状态的强度。这些发现支持了先前的研究，即不确定性是令人厌恶的，并与恐惧和焦虑等负面情绪状态有关。然而，研究结果也表明，不确定性涉及引发和调节恐惧和焦虑之外的各种情绪现象。这项研究强调了进一步研究不确定性和情感互动如何概念化以及与心理健康相关的机会。
Uncertainty and emotion are an inevitable part of everyday life and play a vital role in mental health. Yet, our understanding of how uncertainty and emotion interact is limited. Here, an online survey was conducted (n = 231) to examine whether uncertainty evokes and modulates a range of negative and positive emotions. The data show that uncertainty is predominantly associated with negative emotional states such as fear/anxiety. However, uncertainty was also found to modulate a variety of other negative (i.e., sadness/upset, anger/frustration, and confusion) and positive (i.e., surprise/interest and excited/enthusiastic) emotional states, depending on the valence of an anticipated outcome (i.e., negative and positive) and the sub parameter of uncertainty (i.e., risk and ambiguity). Uncertainty increased the intensity of negative emotional states and decreased the intensity of positive emotional states. These findings support prior research suggesting that uncertainty is aversive and associated with negative emotional states such as fear and anxiety. However, the findings also revealed that uncertainty is involved in eliciting and modulating a wide array of emotional phenomena beyond fear and anxiety. This study highlights an opportunity for further study of how uncertainty and emotion interactions are conceptualised generally and in relation to mental health.
