Sharing experiences with others, even without communication, can amplify those experiences. We investigated whether shared experiences amplify. Participants completed the Cold Pressor Task at the same time as a confederate, or while the confederate completed another task. Importantly, participants in the shared (vs. unshared) condition experienced more sensory pain characteristics and reported more stress over time in relation to the task. Importantly, they reported thinking more about the confederate's thoughts and feelings. This mentalizing sometimes mediated effects, suggesting the task amplified when participants constructed mental representations of others' CPT experience (e.g. that it hurts) and incorporated it into their own responses.
与他人分享经验，即使没有交流，也可以放大这些经验。我们研究了共享经验是否会放大。参与者与同伙同时完成冷压任务，或在同伙完成另一任务时完成。重要的是，与非共享（vs. 非共享）条件相比，共享条件下的参与者在与任务相关的时间内经历了更多的感官疼痛特征，并报告了更多的压力。重要的是，他们报告说更多地思考了同伙的想法和感受。这种心理化有时会调节影响，表明当参与者构建他人 CPT 经验的心理表征（例如，它很疼）并将其纳入自己的反应时，任务会放大。
