Abstract

This study tested whether dispositional emotionality and personality traits moderated the emotion a person experienced when engaging in mind wandering. Participants (n = 264) completed measures of dispositional emotionality and personality. Then on two separate days they completed a 24-hour ecological momentary assessment protocol, responding every 30 min during wake times if they were mind wandering, and how angry, sad, anxious, and happy they felt, for a total of 8,530 assessments. Using multilevel models, we found the following when mind wandering versus not: trait anger predicted more anger, depressive symptomatology more sadness, openness to experience less sadness, neuroticism more anger, and conscientiousness less happiness. Results indicate a synchrony between emotions experienced while mind wandering to one’s dispositional emotionality and personality.

思绪游荡会给谁带来压力？倾向性情绪和人格在预测日常生活中的情绪体验中的调节作用

本研究测试了处置情绪性和人格特质是否会调节一个人在进行思绪游荡时所体验到的情绪。参与者（n = 264）完成了处置情绪性和人格的测量。然后，他们分别在两天内完成了一项 24 小时生态瞬间评估方案，在清醒时每隔 30 分钟回答自己是否在胡思乱想，以及他们感到愤怒、悲伤、焦虑和快乐的程度，总共进行了 8,530 次评估。通过使用多层次模型，我们发现当思想游离与否时，特质愤怒预示着更多的愤怒，抑郁症状预示着更多的悲伤，开放性体验预示着更少的悲伤，神经质预示着更多的愤怒，自觉性预示着更少的快乐。研究结果表明，思维游离时的情绪与个人的倾向性情绪和人格之间具有同步性。
