Abstract

We see unique opportunities to advance emotional research by studying an overlooked environmental problem. The biodiversity crisis is caused by land use, in particular by reducing and damaging habitats, such as deforestation for cattle grazing. Biodiversity processes are proximate and personally moving, like when a person is causing or experiencing changes to livelihood-providing ecosystems, and we suggest this affect-rich context is useful for studying social and psychological processes. In contrast, much research on far-away populations thinking about climate change effects involves more abstract and distant cognitions. We also suggest biodiversity-related emotions have consequential outcomes for health and behavior, and provide advice for shaping research programs on specific populations and wildlife interactions.

生物多样性情感研究的机遇

我们看到了通过研究一个被忽视的环境问题来推进情感研究的独特机会。生物多样性危机是由土地利用引起的，特别是由于栖息地的减少和破坏，例如为放牧而砍伐森林。生物多样性过程是接近的，并且是个人的动态过程，比如当一个人正在对提供生计的生态系统造成或经历变化时，我们认为这种影响丰富的背景对于研究社会和心理过程是有用的。相比之下，许多关于遥远人群思考气候变化影响的研究涉及更抽象和遥远的认知。我们还建议，与生物多样性相关的情绪会对健康和行为产生重要影响，并为制定特定种群和野生动物互动的研究计划提供建议。

期刊介绍： Emotion Review is a fully peer reviewed scholarly journal. It adheres to a blinded peer review process in which the reviewer"s name is routinely withheld from the author unless the reviewer requests a preference for their identity to be revealed. All manuscripts are reviewed initially by the Editors and only those papers that meet the scientific and editorial standards of the journal, and fit within the aims and scope of the journal, will be sent for outside review. Emotion Review will focus on ideas about emotion, with "emotion" broadly defined. The Review will publish articles presenting new theories, offering conceptual analyses, reviewing the literature, and debating and critiquing conceptual issues.
