认知情感处理系统或 CAPS 理论的提出是为了解释解释人们的行为为何以及如何在不同情况下稳定变化的过程。对拒绝敏感性的研究被视为一种纲领性尝试，旨在说明如何在 CAPS 框架内研究人格倾向。这项研究揭示了一种如果……那么……（例如，如果情况 X，他会做 A，但如果情况 Y，他会做 B）拒绝敏感性模式，因此高度拒绝敏感的人防止拒绝的目标可能会导致顺从行为；然而，未能实现这一目标可能会导致攻击性、反应性和自我概念不清晰。这些情境-行为关系或个性特征反映了独特的个性处理动态的稳定激活网络。这些动态将拒绝的恐惧和期望、拒绝的感知/归因以及对感知拒绝的情感/行为过度反应联系起来。自我调节和注意力机制可能与这些动态相互作用，作为高拒绝敏感性的缓冲器，说明 CAPS 网络内的多个过程如何在行为中发挥作用。
The Cognitive-Affective Processing Systems or CAPS theory was proposed to account for the processes that explain why and how people’s behavior varies stably across situations. Research on Rejection Sensitivity is reviewed as a programmatic attempt to illustrate how personality dispositions can be studied within the CAPS framework. This research reveals an if … then … (e.g., if situation X, he does A, but if situation Y, he does B) pattern of rejection sensitivity such that high rejection sensitive people’s goal to prevent rejection can lead to accommodating behavior; yet, the failure to achieve this goal can lead to aggression, reactivity, and lack of self-concept clarity. These situation–behavior relations or personality signatures reflect a stable activation network of distinctive personality processing dynamics. These dynamics link fears and expectations of rejection, perceptions/attributions of rejection, and affective/behavioral overreactions to perceived rejection. Self-regulatory and attentional mechanisms may interact with these dynamics as buffers against high rejection sensitivity, illustrating how multiple processes within a CAPS network play out in behavior.
