Past research demonstrates that mood can influence level of perceptual processing (global vs. local). The present research shows that level of perceptual processing can influence mood as well. In four studies, we manipulated people's level of perceptual processing using a Navon letter task (Study 1), landscape scenery (Study 2), and Google Maps Street View images (Studies 3 and 4). Results from these studies and a meta-analysis support the conclusion that global processing results in higher happiness than local processing. In conjunction with previous findings that mood affects level of cognitive processing, these results suggest that the link between level of processing and mood may be reciprocal and bidirectional.
以往的研究表明，情绪会影响感知加工水平（整体加工与局部加工）。本研究表明，感知加工水平也会影响情绪。在四项研究中，我们使用纳冯字母任务（研究1）、风景图片（研究2）以及谷歌地图街景图像（研究3和研究4）来操纵人们的感知加工水平。这些研究结果以及一项元分析支持了以下结论：与局部加工相比，整体加工会带来更高的幸福感。结合之前关于情绪影响认知加工水平的研究发现，这些结果表明加工水平与情绪之间的联系可能是相互的、双向的。
