Abstract

Two studies examined the question of whether photograph taking of an event influences the positivity of the evaluations of the event at a later point in time. Memories of photographed events yielded higher positivity ratings than memories that were not photographed. Although we expected fading of positivity ratings to occur more slowly over a period of two months for memories of photographed events, we found faster affect fading for those memories in Study 2 instead. The findings of the two studies support the idea that taking photographs of events sustains the affective reconstruction of autobiographical memories, regardless of whether these events are special, such as vacation memories, or more mundane, such as memories of the past weekend.
照片和时间滞后对假期和周末记忆的积极评价的作用
有两项研究考察了对某一事件进行拍照是否会影响人们日后对该事件评价的积极性这一问题。有照片的记忆比没有照片的记忆产生了更高的积极评价。尽管我们预期在两个月的时间里,对拍摄的事件的记忆,积极评价的消退速度会慢一些,但我们发现,在研究2中,这些记忆的影响消退速度反而更快。这两项研究的结果支持了这样一种观点,即拍摄事件可以维持自传式记忆的情感重建,无论这些事件是特别的,比如度假记忆,还是更平凡的,比如上周末的记忆。
