An individual's emotions system can be conceived of as a synchronized, coordinated, and/or emergent combination of physiology, experience, and behavioral components. Together, the interplay among these components produce emotional experiences through coordinated excitatory positive feedback (i.e., the mutual amplification of emotion concordance) and/or inhibitory negative feedback (i.e., the damping of emotion regulation) processes. Different system configurations produce differential psychophysiological reactivity profiles, and by implication, differential moment-to-moment emotional experience and long-term development. Applying dynamic systems models to second-by-second psychophysiological and experience time-series data collected from 130 adolescents (age 12.0 to 16.7 years) completing a social stress-inducing speech task, we describe the configuration of adolescents' emotion systems, and examine how differences in the dynamic outputs of those systems (psychophysiological reactivity profile) are related to individual differences in trait anxiety. We found substantial heterogeneity in the coordination patterns of these adolescents. Some individuals' emotion systems were characterized by negative feedback loops (emotion regulation processes), many by unidirectionally connected or independent components, and a few by positive feedback loops (emotion concordance). The reactivity dynamics of respiratory sinus arrhythmia were related to adolescents' level of trait anxiety. Results highlight how dynamic systems models may contribute to our understanding of interindividual and developmental differences. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved).
个体的情绪系统可以被视为生理、经验和行为成分的同步、协调和/或涌现组合。这些成分通过协调的兴奋性正反馈(即情绪一致性的相互放大)和/或抑制性负反馈(即情绪调节的阻尼)过程相互作用,共同产生情绪体验。不同的系统配置产生不同的心理生理反应特征,因此,产生不同的情绪体验和长期发展。我们将动态系统模型应用于从 130 名青少年(12.0 至 16.7 岁)完成引发社交压力的演讲任务的逐秒心理生理和体验时间序列数据中,描述了青少年情绪系统的配置,并研究了这些系统的动态输出(心理生理反应特征)差异如何与特质焦虑的个体差异相关。我们发现这些青少年的协调模式存在很大的异质性。一些个体的情绪系统的特征是负反馈循环(情绪调节过程),许多是单向连接或独立的成分,少数是正反馈循环(情绪一致性)。呼吸窦性心律失常的反应动力学与青少年的特质焦虑水平有关。研究结果突出了动态系统模型如何有助于我们理解个体间和发展差异。(PsycINFO 数据库记录(c)2019 APA,保留所有权利)。
