Abstract

Our mental experience is largely continuous on the scale of seconds and minutes. However, this continuity does not always arise from a volitional carrying forward of ideas. Instead, recent actions, thoughts, dispositions, and emotions can persist in mind, continually shaping our later experience. Aspects of this fundamental property of human cognition - psychological momentum - have been studied under the rubrics of memory, task set, mood, mind-wandering, and mindset. Reviewing these largely independent threads of research, we argue that psychological momentum is best understood from an integrated perspective, as an adaptation that helps us meet the current demands of our environment and to form lasting memories.

心理动力。

我们的心理体验在很大程度上是连续的，以秒和分钟为单位。然而，这种连续性并不总是源于对思想的意志继承。相反，最近的行动、想法、性格和情绪可以在脑海中持续存在，不断塑造我们后来的经历。人类认知的这一基本性质——心理动力——的各个方面已经在记忆、任务集、情绪、走神和心态的标题下进行了研究。回顾这些基本上独立的研究线索，我们认为，心理动力最好从综合的角度来理解，它是一种适应，有助于我们满足当前环境的需求，并形成持久的记忆。
