The approach-inhibition theory of power proposed that elevated power (which relates to increased rewards and freedom) activates approach-related tendencies, whereas reduced power (which relates to increased threat, punishment, and social constraint) activates inhibition-related tendencies Keltner et al. (2003). In the current article, we review the empirical advances - over the past 16 years - regarding four main propositions of the approach-inhibition theory of power: (a) positive affect versus negative affect, (b) attention to rewards versus attention to threats, (c) automatic cognition versus systematic/controlled cognition, and (d) disinhibited and state/trait driven behavior versus inhibited and situationally constrained behavior. By revealing robust empirical support for, and imaginative extensions of, the four propositions, this review invites future studies of power to further build upon and revise the early claims of approach-inhibition theory.
权力的接近抑制理论提出，权力的提升（与奖励和自由的增加有关）激活了与接近相关的倾向，而权力的降低（与威胁、惩罚和社会约束的增加有关）则激活了与抑制相关的倾向。Keltner 等人。（2003）。在本文中，我们回顾了过去 16 年来权力的接近抑制理论的四个主要命题的实证进展：（a）积极情绪与消极情绪，（b）对奖励的关注与对威胁的关注，（c）自动认知与系统/控制认知，以及（d）解除抑制和状态/特质驱动的行为与抑制和情境约束的行为。通过揭示对这四个命题的有力实证支持和富有想象力的扩展，本综述邀请未来对权力的研究进一步建立和修改接近抑制理论的早期主张。
