Abstract

Emotion recognition ability (ERA) is typically conceptualized as an adaptive ability that contributes to better social functioning and well-being. However, there is a lack of studies examining the link between ERA and well-being. In the present two-week daily diary study (N = 437), this association was investigated in more detail. Although ERA was not significantly correlated with mean levels of well-being, higher ERA predicted lower affect variability and instability. There was also evidence for a U-shaped relationship between ERA and well-being. Further, maladaptive emotion regulation and neuroticism moderated the ERA-well-being link. These findings suggest that ERA should not be seen as universally adaptive for well-being.

超越平均水平和线性关系：情绪识别能力与幸福感之间的复杂关系

情绪识别能力（ERA）通常被视为一种适应能力，有助于提高社会功能和幸福感。然而，目前还缺乏对情绪识别能力与幸福感之间联系的研究。在本项为期两周的每日日记研究（N = 437）中，我们对这种关联进行了更详细的调查。尽管ERA与幸福感的平均水平没有明显的相关性，但较高的ERA预示着较低的情感变异性和不稳定性。还有证据表明，ERA 与幸福感之间存在 U 型关系。此外，适应不良的情绪调节和神经质调节了ERA与幸福感之间的联系。这些发现表明，ERA 不应被视为对幸福感具有普遍适应性。
