作为人类，我们经常进行精神时间旅行，重温过去的经历并想象未来可能发生的事件。这项研究探讨了类似的因素是否会影响与记住过去和想象未来相关的主观体验。参与者在心理上“重新经历”或“预先经历”积极和消极事件，这些事件与现在的时间距离不同（近距离与远距离），然后评估与其表征相关的现象特征（即感觉、情境和情感细节）。对于过去和未来，积极事件的表征比消极事件的表征更能带来重新体验（或预先体验）的感觉。此外，时间上接近的事件（过去和未来）的表示包含更多的感官和上下文细节，并且比时间上遥远的事件的表示产生更强烈的重新体验（或预先体验）的感觉。这表明我们记住过去和想象未来的方式都受到我们当前目标的限制。 (C) 2004 Elsevier Inc. 保留所有权利。
As humans, we frequently engage in mental time travel, reliving past experiences and imagining possible future events. This study examined whether similar factors affect the subjective experience associated with remembering the past and imagining the future. Participants mentally "re-experienced" or "pre-experienced" positive and negative events that differed in their temporal distance from the present (close versus distant), and then rated the phenomenal characteristics (i.e., sensorial, contextual, and emotional details) associated with their representations. For both past and future, representations of positive events were associated with a greater feeling of re-experiencing (or pre-experiencing) than representations of negative events. In addition, representations of temporally close events (both past and future) contained more sensorial and contextual details, and generated a stronger feeling of re-experiencing (or pre-experiencing) than representations of temporally distant events. It is suggested that the way we both remember our past and imagine our future is constrained by our current goals. (C) 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
