关于敬畏和生命意义(MIL)的研究很少。在本研究中，我们进行了一项预先登记的研究，从MIL的三方模型以及派生意义的构建和检测路径的角度来考察AWE对MIL的影响。结果表明，敬畏通过激发目标追求而增加MIL，但通过降低意义感而降低MIL。总体而言，敬畏增加了MIL，这主要是由目标追求的中介效应驱动的。我们的发现表明，敬畏并不是一种纯粹的积极情绪，它以一种复杂的方式影响着MIL。文中还讨论了影响因素。
Research on awe and meaning in life (MIL) is rare. In the current research, we conducted a pre-registered study to examine how awe influences MIL from the perspective of the tripartite model of MIL as well as the construction and detection routes of deriving meaning. The results showed that awe increased MIL via motivating purpose pursuit but decreased MIL by reducing the sense of significance. Overall, awe increased MIL, which was driven mainly by the mediating effect of purpose pursuit. Our findings suggest that awe is not a purely positive emotion, and it affects MIL in a complex way. The implications were discussed.
