两种不同的理论模型被用来解释外向性和神经质的人格维度与积极和消极情绪的情感维度之间的关系。艾森克的模型预测,外向性应该与积极情感相关,而不是消极情感,而神经质应该与消极情感相关,而不是积极情感。格雷和纽曼提出的模型主张,在预测积极和消极情感时,外向性和神经质之间应该存在相互作用,这样神经质和情感之间的关系取决于一个人在外向维度上的位置。本研究的目的是测试这两种理论模型(艾森克或格雷/纽曼)与积极和消极情感敏感性的关系。结果最适合来自艾森克模型的预测。外向性与愉快情绪诱导后的积极情绪呈正相关,神经质与消极情绪诱导后的负面情绪正相关。正如格雷/纽曼模型所预期的那样,没有证据表明外向性与神经质在预测情绪反应方面存在相互作用。 (C) 1997 爱思唯尔科学有限公司。
Two different theoretical models have been used to explain relationships between the personality dimensions of extraversion and neuroticism and the affect dimensions of positive and negative mood. Eysenck's model predicts that extraversion should relate to positive affect, but not negative affect, and that neuroticism should relate to negative affect, but not positive affect. The model proposed by Gray and Newman asserts that there should be an interaction between extraversion and neuroticism in predicting positive and negative affect, such that the relationship between neuroticism and affect depends on one's position on the extraversion dimension. The purpose of the present study is to test these two theoretical models (Eysenck or Gray/Newman) in relation to positive and negative affect susceptibility. Results best fit predictions derived from Eysenck's model. Extraversion was positively related to positive affect following a pleasant mood induction, and neuroticism was positively related to negative affect following a negative mood induction. There was no evidence for an extraversion x neuroticism interaction in predicting emotional reactions, as would be expected from the Gray/Newman model. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
