In this paper, we explore the role of emotion in the interpretation and memory of sexual encounters. We consider situations likely to generate negative emotions during sex, and the mechanisms through which the experience of negative emotions can lead to false memories of coercion and mislabeling of an encounter as sexual assault. Specifically, we consider the role of emotion in directing attention during a sexual encounter and the effects of emotion as context for interpretation at the time of the encounter, and for retrieval and interpretation when the encounter is later recalled and reported. Our intent is to provide a greater understanding of the processes of interpretation and memory through which false claims of sexual assault might arise, if and when they do arise.
在本文中,我们探讨了情感在性经历的解释和记忆中的作用。我们考虑了在性行为中可能产生负面情绪的情况,以及负面情绪体验如何导致错误地认为存在强迫和错误地将一次遭遇标记为性侵犯的机制。具体而言,我们考虑了情感在性行为期间引导注意力的作用,以及情感作为当时的解释和检索时的解释的上下文的作用当遭遇被回忆和报告时。我们的目的是通过解释和记忆的过程,更好地理解性侵犯的虚假指控可能是如何产生的,如果产生的话。
