Abstract

ABSTRACT This article seeks to explain the mood repair process that sad viewers undergo and the mood enhancement process that happy viewers adopt when they watch drama series with varying levels of likability and familiarity. Building on the idea that drama enjoyment can regulate moods, the authors test three possible processes: transportation path (involving transportation and enjoyment), meaning path (involving transportation, moved feelings, thought reflections, and enjoyment), and parasocial support path (involving transportation, parasocial interactions, identification with drama characters, and enjoyment). The findings identify likability as crucial and also show that the processes vary for happy versus sad viewers.

看戏剧可以修复或增强情绪的多种机制

摘要本文试图解释悲伤观众在观看不同程度的喜爱度和熟悉度的剧集时所经历的情绪修复过程和快乐观众所采取的情绪增强过程。基于戏剧享受可以调节情绪的观点，作者测试了三个可能的过程：运输路径（涉及运输和享受）、意义路径（涉及交通、感动的感觉、思想反思和享受）和准社会支持路径（涉及运送、准社会互动、对戏剧角色的认同和享受）。研究结果表明，讨人喜欢是至关重要的，同时也表明，快乐观众和悲伤观众的讨人喜欢过程各不相同。
