Abstract

The peak-end rule, a memory heuristic in which the most emotionally salient part of an experience (i.e., peak) and conclusion of an experience (i.e., end) are weighted more heavily in summary evaluations, has been understudied in mental health contexts. The recent growth of intensive longitudinal methods has provided new opportunities for examining the peak-end rule in the retrospective recall of mental health symptoms, including measures often used in measurement-based care initiatives. Additionally, principles of the peak-end rule have significant potential to be applied to exposure-based therapy procedures. Additional research is needed to better understand the contexts in which, and persons for whom, the peak-end rule presents a greater risk of bias, to ultimately improve assessment strategies and clinical care.

心理健康背景下的峰值结束规则回顾

峰终法则是一种记忆启发式方法，在这种方法中，经历中情绪最突出的部分（即峰值）和经历的结尾（即终点）在总结性评价中的权重更大。最近，密集型纵向研究方法的发展为研究心理健康症状回顾中的峰终法则提供了新的机会，包括在基于测量的护理计划中经常使用的测量方法。此外，峰终法则的原则在应用于暴露疗法程序方面也有很大的潜力。我们还需要进行更多的研究，以更好地了解峰终法则在哪些情况下以及对哪些人而言会产生更大的偏差风险，从而最终改进评估策略和临床护理。
