Abstract

We investigated the impact of situational awe on topic-specific interest and recognition memory for information presented in immersive planetarium films. Adult participants (N = 131) were recruited among science centre visitors who were going to view one of the films shown in the science centre's planetarium. Participants responded to questions about prior knowledge, topic-specific interest in the film and background information before viewing one of the three planetarium films. After the film, they completed the topic-specific interest scale, epistemically-related emotion scales, situation-specific awe scale, critical thinking disposition scale and a recognition task of the film contents. The results showed that during viewing planetarium films participants experienced awe, but the strength of this emotion varied among films. Additionally, situation-specific awe was strongly associated with another epistemic emotion, namely surprise. As for the recognition task performance, awe decreased error and nonsense detection, and increased false recognition of inferential statements. Finally, awe was found to substantially increase topic-specific interest. These results present evidence that awe has potential to prompt individuals to become more interested in science-related topics.

敬畏之心对天文馆影片主题兴趣和信息识别记忆的影响。
我们研究了情境威慑对特定主题的兴趣和对沉浸式天文馆电影中呈现的信息的识别记忆的影响。我们在科学中心的游客中招募了成年参与者(N = 131),他们将观看科学中心天文馆播放的其中一部电影。在观看三部天象仪电影中的一部之前,参与者回答了有关先前知识、对电影特定主题的兴趣以及背景信息的问题。观影结束后,他们完成了特定主题兴趣量表、认识论相关情绪量表、特定情境敬畏量表、批判性思维倾向量表和影片内容识别任务。结果显示,在观看天文馆电影的过程中,参与者会产生敬畏感,但这种情感的强度因电影而异。此外,特定情境下的敬畏与另一种认识情绪(即惊讶)密切相关。至于识别任务的表现,敬畏减少了错误和无意义的检测,增加了推理语句的错误识别。最后,研究还发现,敬畏能大大提高对特定主题的兴趣。这些结果证明,敬畏有可能促使人们对与科学相关的话题产生更浓厚的兴趣。

期刊介绍: Cognition & Emotion is devoted to the study of emotion, especially to those aspects of emotion related to cognitive processes. The journal aims to bring together work on emotion undertaken by researchers in cognitive, social, clinical, and developmental psychology, neuropsychology, and cognitive science. Examples of topics appropriate for the journal include the role of cognitive processes in emotion elicitation, regulation, and expression; the impact of emotion on attention, memory, learning, motivation, judgements, and decisions.
