扩展和构建理论(Fredrickson，1998,2001)假设积极的情绪扩展了注意力和思维-行动的范围。有104名大学生参加的两个实验验证了这些假设。在每一组中，参与者观看一部引起(A)娱乐、(B)满足、(C)中立、(D)愤怒或(E)焦虑的电影。使用全局-局部视觉加工任务评估注意范围(实验1)，使用20个陈述测试评估思维-行动曲目(实验2)。与中性状态相比，在实验1中，积极情绪扩大了注意力范围，在实验2中，相对于中性状态，消极情绪缩小了思维-行动范围。对促进情绪健康和身体健康的意义进行了讨论。
The broaden-and-build theory (Fredrickson, 1998, 2001) hypothesises that positive emotions broaden the scope of attention and thought-action repertoires. Two experiments with 104 college students tested these hypotheses. In each, participants viewed a film that elicited (a) amusement, (b) contentment, (c) neutrality, (d) anger, or (e) anxiety. Scope of attention was assessed using a global-local visual processing task (Experiment 1) and thought-action repertoires were assessed using a Twenty Statements Test (Experiment 2). Compared to a neutral state, positive emotions broadened the scope of attention in Experiment I and thought-action repertoires in Experiment 2. In Experiment 2, negative emotions, relative to a neutral state, narrowed thought-action repertoires. Implications for promoting emotional well-being and physical health are discussed.
