Considerable research has examined the relationship between positive emotion and cognitive flexibility. Less is known, however, about the causal relationship between discrete positive emotions, specifically gratitude, and cognitive flexibility. Given that different positive emotions may dissimilarly affect cognitive functioning, we sought to examine the effect of state gratitude on cognitive flexibility. A pilot study with ninety-five participants was employed to ensure the effectiveness of our gratitude manipulation. One hundred and thirteen participants were recruited for the main study, which utilized a within-subject experimental approach. After the manipulation, participants completed a well-established task-switching paradigm, which was used to measure cognitive flexibility. Contrary to our hypotheses, we did not find any evidence that state gratitude may enhance cognitive flexibility. The current study identified some boundary conditions around the potential benefits of the experience of gratitude.
大量研究探讨了积极情绪与认知灵活性之间的关系。然而，对于离散的积极情绪，特别是感恩与认知灵活性之间的因果关系，我们了解得较少。鉴于不同的积极情绪可能对认知功能产生不同的影响，我们试图研究状态性感恩对认知灵活性的影响。我们进行了一项有95名参与者的预实验，以确保我们的感恩诱导措施有效。主实验招募了113名参与者，采用了被试内实验方法。在诱导之后，参与者完成了一个成熟的任务转换范式，该范式用于测量认知灵活性。与我们的假设相反，我们没有发现任何证据表明状态性感恩可以提高认知灵活性。当前的研究确定了感恩体验潜在益处的一些边界条件。
