Our purpose in this research was to investigate the role of passion (Vallerand et al., 2003) for a given activity in the quality of interpersonal relationships experienced within the context of that activity in 4 studies. Study 1 demonstrated that a harmonious passion was positively associated with the quality of interpersonal relationships within the context of the passionate activity, whereas an obsessive passion was unrelated to it. Furthermore, in line with the broaden-and-build theory (Fredrickson, 2001), results also showed that positive emotions experienced at work fully mediated the relation between harmonious passion and quality of interpersonal relationships. Obsessive passion was not associated with positive emotions. Study 2 replicated the results from Study 1 while controlling for trait extraversion. Also, in Study 2, we examined the negative mediating role of negative emotions between obsessive passion and quality of interpersonal relationships. Finally, Studies 3 and 4 replicated the results of Study 2 with prospective designs and with objective ratings of interpersonal relationships quality. Implications for the dualistic model of passion and the broaden-and-build theory are discussed.
我们在这项研究中的目的是在四个研究中探讨对特定活动的热情(Vallerand 等人,2003 年)在该活动背景下体验到的人际关系质量的作用。研究 1 表明,和谐的热情与激情活动背景下的人际关系质量呈正相关,而痴迷的热情与人际关系质量无关。此外,根据拓宽和建设理论(弗雷德里克森,2001 年),结果还表明,工作中体验到的积极情绪完全中介了和谐热情与人际关系质量之间的关系。痴迷的热情与积极情绪无关。研究 2 在控制特质外向性的同时复制了研究 1 的结果。此外,在研究 2 中,我们检验了痴迷热情与人际关系质量之间的负面情绪的负中介作用。最后,研究 3 和 4 用前瞻性设计和人际关系质量的客观评价复制了研究 2 的结果。讨论了对热情的二元模型和拓宽和建设理论的影响。
