Abstract
Socioemotional selectivity theory (SST) is a theory of life-span development grounded in the uniquely human ability to monitor time. SST maintains that the approach of endings-whether due to aging or other endings such as geographic relocations and severe illness-elicits motivational changes in which emotionally meaningful goals are prioritized over exploration. Research guided by SST has informed preferences, social networks, and emotional experience and led to the discovery of the positivity effect in cognitive processing. This article, based on my 2015 Robert W. Kleemeier Award Lecture, describes the development of SST and its related program of empirical research.
摘要
社会情绪选择理论（SST）是一种基于人类独特的时间监测能力的生命周期发展理论。SST 认为，接近终点——无论是由于衰老还是其他终点，如地理迁移和严重疾病——会引起动机变化，使情感上有意义的目标优先于探索。受 SST 指导的研究为偏好、社交网络和情绪体验提供了信息，并导致了认知加工中的正性效应的发现。本文基于我 2015 年罗伯特·W·克莱米尔奖演讲，描述了 SST 的发展及其相关的实证研究计划。
