遗憾和失望有一个共同点，即当一项决定的结果是不利的时，人们都会经历这两种情绪：它们都涉及“如果情况不同，可能会是什么样子”。然而，一些后悔和失望理论家认为这些情绪之间的差异很重要，认为它们在感受它们的条件以及它们如何影响决策方面有所不同。本研究的目的是检验这些情绪是否以及如何根据它们的体验方式而有所不同。参与者被要求回忆一个强烈的遗憾或失望的例子，并指出他们的感觉，想法，感觉想做什么，做了什么，以及在这段经历中被激励去做什么。Roseman，Wiest，& Swartz，1994）。遗憾和失望之间的显着差异被发现在每一个类别。这些差异在“行动倾向”（参与者想做什么）和“情感动机”（他们被激励去做什么）方面最为明显。这些结果表明，这两种情绪对未来的行为有不同的影响。
Regret and disappointment have in common the fact that they are experienced when the outcome of a decision is unfavourable: They both concern “what might have been”, had things been different. However, some regret and disappointment theorists regard the differences between these emotions as important, arguing that they differ with respect to the conditions under which they are felt, and how they affect decision making. The goal of the present research was to examine whether and how these emotions also differ with respect to the way in which they are experienced. Participants were asked torecall aninstance of intense regret or disappointment andto indicate what they felt, thought, felt like doing, did, and were motivated to do during this experience (cf. Roseman, Wiest, & Swartz, 1994). Significant differences between regret and disappointment were found in every category. These differences were most pronounced for “action tendencies” (what participants felt like doing) and “emotivations” (what they were motivated to do). These results suggest that the two emotions have differential implications for future behaviour.
