进行了四项研究,以审查具体和全球福祉报告中的文化差异。前两项研究的目的是确定文化差异的情绪体验是否会出现在实际经验的时间或在回顾性判断时,使用日常日记和经验抽样方法。使用更多的控制方法,研究3和4检查了记忆,有意识的加权和无意识的加权假设。结果表明,虽然在网上体验幸福感方面没有文化差异,但在回顾性报告中,欧洲裔美国人的幸福感程度高于亚洲人。研究3和4还表明,这些文化差异不是由于情感事件的外显记忆或积极与消极信息的有意识加权。相反,回顾性幸福报告中的文化差异似乎是由于无意识地对积极信息和消极信息进行加权。
Four studies were conducted to examine cultural differences in specific and global reports of well-being. The first two studies were designed to determine whether cultural differences in emotional experiences would emerge at the time of actual experience or at the time of retrospective judgments, using a daily diary and an experience sampling method. Using more controlled methods, Studies 3 and 4 examined the memory, conscious weighting, and nonconscious weighting hypotheses. The results indicate that although there were no cultural differences in online experiences of well-being, European Americans reported a higher degree of well-being than did Asians in retrospective reports. Studies 3 and 4 also indicate that these cultural differences were not due to explicit memory for emotional events or conscious weighting of positive versus negative information. Rather, the cultural difference in retrospective reports of well-being appears to be due to nonconscious weighting of positive versus negative information.
