与决策相关的后悔是一种与思考过去或未来选择相关的负面情绪。思考部分通常采取希望事情不是这样的形式，并涉及将实际发生或将要发生的事情与一些更好的替代方案进行比较——“反事实思维”。对于决策前（预期的）后悔，思考涉及对不同选择可能导致的结果的心理模拟。先前的研究重点关注与决策结果相关的后悔，特别是解决（a）所选的比较结果以及（b）结果是由行动还是不行动造成的。最近的研究考察了与选择本身和之前的决策过程相关的遗憾。这里的兴趣集中在所做出的选择或所使用的过程的合理性上。在本文中，作者回顾了当前的后悔研究，并提出了将其扩展到与癌症相关的决策的方向。
Decision-related regret is a negative emotion associated with thinking about a past or future choice. The thinking component generally takes the form of a wish that things were otherwise and involves a comparison of what actually did or will take place with some better alternative-a "counterfactual thought." For predecisional (anticipated) regret, the thinking involves a mental simulation of the outcomes that might result from different choice options. Prior research has focused on regret associated with decision outcomes, addressing especially (a) the comparison outcome selected and (b) whether the outcome resulted from action or inaction. More recent research examines regret associated with the choice itself and with the preceding decision process. Interest here has focused on the justifiability of the choice made or the process used. In this article, the authors review current regret research and propose directions for extending it to cancer-related decisions.
