摘要

目前的研究采用为期一年的纵向设计来检验年龄相关的积极偏差和年龄相关的积极效应，样本跨越成年期(N = 374；年龄范围19-90岁；法师= 47.41；SDage = 16.75)。参与者回答了关于他们了解2020年美国总统大选结果的记忆的问题。结果为正性偏差（即年龄的主要影响）提供了证据，但没有证据表明正性效应（即年龄-价相互作用）。年龄的增长与事件发生时的负面情绪减少有关，并且在一年后回忆事件时感觉更积极（高兴和快乐）。抑郁症状部分介导了年龄与效价变量之间的关系，表明抑郁症状可能部分解释了年龄相关的正偏倚。

Evidence of the age-related positivity bias in autobiographical memories of the 2020 United States Presidential election outcome.

The current study examines the age-related positivity bias and the age-related positivity effect using a one-year longitudinal design with a sample that spans adulthood (N = 374; age range 19-90; M_age = 47.41; SD_age= 16.75). Participants answered questions regarding their memories of learning about the outcome of the 2020 U.S. presidential election. Results provide evidence for the positivity bias (i.e., a main effect of age) but no evidence of the positivity effect (i.e., an age x valence interaction). Increased age was associated with reporting feeling less negative at the time of the event, and also remembering feeling more positive (elated and happy) when reconstructing the event one year later. Depressive symptoms partially mediated the relationship between age and valence variables, indicating that depressive symptoms may partly explain the age-related positivity bias.

期刊介绍： Memory publishes high quality papers in all areas of memory research. This includes experimental studies of memory (including laboratory-based research, everyday memory studies, and applied memory research), developmental, educational, neuropsychological, clinical and social research on memory. By representing all significant areas of memory research, the journal cuts across the traditional distinctions of psychological research. Memory therefore provides a unique venue for memory researchers to communicate their findings and ideas both to peers within their own research tradition in the study of memory, and also to the wider range of research communities with direct interest in human memory.
