本研究比较了外向性、神经质以及外向性×神经质如何与愉快和不愉快的情绪信息加工相关联,这是依据艾森克、格雷和纽曼的理论所预测的。首先,使用艾森克人格量表评估参与者的外向性水平(通过社交性分量表测量)和神经质水平。然后对他们进行单独测试。在完成一份关于当前积极和消极情绪的问卷调查后,他们完成了三项测量愉快、不愉快以及中性信息加工的任务。结果表明,外向性与愉快信息的加工呈正相关,而神经质与不愉快信息的加工呈正相关。这些发现支持了艾森克理论的预测。版权所有 (C) 2002 约翰威立父子有限公司
This study compared how extraversion, neuroticism, and extraversion x neuroticism are related to processing of pleasant and unpleasant emotional information as predicted by Eysenck's, Gray's, and Newman's theories. Initially, the participants' levels of extraversion (as measured by the sociability subscale) and neuroticism were assessed with Eysenck's Personality Inventory. They were then tested individually. After completing a questionnaire of current positive and negative moods, they completed three tasks measuring processing of pleasant, unpleasant, and also neutral information. The results showed that extraversion was associated positively with the processing of pleasant information, while neuroticism was associated positively with the processing of unpleasant information. These findings support predictions from Eysenck's theory. Copyright (C) 2002 John Wiley Sons, Ltd.
