在心理学研究中，受访者经常在一段较长的时间后对自己的情绪经历进行回顾性评价。本研究试图确定这种基于记忆的评级是否受到受访者对自己情绪的描述的影响，而不是对他们的瞬时情绪评级的总结。参与者完成了神经质和外向性的自我报告测量，并对他们在 90 天内的情绪进行了瞬时评级。在研究结束时，参与者回忆起他们在研究过程中的情绪。研究结果表明，情绪的回顾性评级包含有关瞬时情绪报告的准确信息。回顾性评级也受到受访者个性描述的影响。自称神经质的人记得经历过比他们瞬时报告的更多的负面情绪；自称外向的人表现出一种倾向，即记住比他们瞬时报告的更多的积极情绪。
In psychological research, respondents often make retrospective ratings of their emotional experiences after an extended period of time. The present study sought to determine whether such memory-based ratings are influenced by respondents' descriptions of their own emotionality, over and above a summary of their momentary emotion ratings. Participants completed self-report measures of neuroticism and extraversion and made momentary ratings of their emotions across 90 days. At the end of the study, participants recalled what their emotions had been during the course of the study. Findings indicated that recrospective ratings of emotion contained accurate information about momentary emotion reports. Also the retrospective ratings were influenced in the direction of respondents' personality descriptions. Individual who described themselves as neurotic remembered experiencing more negative emotion than they reported on a momentary basis; individuals who described themselves as extraverted displayed a trend to remember more positive emotion than they reported on a momentary basis.
