To date, diurnal rhythms of emotions have been studied with real-time data collection methods mostly in relatively small samples. The Day Reconstruction Method (DRM), a new survey instrument that reconstructs the emotions of a day, is examined as a method for enabling large-scale investigations of rhythms. Diurnal cycles were observed for 12 emotion adjectives in 909 women over a working day. Bimodal patterns with peaks at noon and evenings were detected for positive emotions; peaks in negative emotions were found at mid-morning and mid-afternoon. A V-shaped pattern was found for tired and an inverted U-shaped pattern for competent. Several diurnal patterns from prior studies were replicated. The DRM appears to be a useful tool for the study of emotions.
迄今为止，情绪的昼夜节律大多是通过实时数据收集方法在相对较小的样本中进行研究的。日重建法（DRM）是一种用于重建一天情绪的新调查工具，本文将其作为一种能够进行大规模节律调查的方法进行研究。在一个工作日内，对909名女性的12个情绪形容词进行了昼夜周期观察。发现积极情绪呈双峰模式，峰值出现在中午和晚上；消极情绪的峰值出现在上午中旬和下午中旬。疲劳呈现V形模式，胜任感呈现倒U形模式。先前研究中的几种昼夜模式得到了重复验证。日重建法似乎是研究情绪的一种有用工具。
