50 adult subjects identified resultant emotions for 28 children's statements of antecedents to emotion in an open-ended task. Responses were scored along the dimensions of evaluation and activation by the Dictionary of Affect in Language, and a priori expectations with respect to evaluation (happy, proud, comfortable > sad, afraid, guilty, angry) and activation (sad, comfortable < angry, happy, proud, afraid, guilty) were confirmed. The importance of a dimensional approach to the study of emotion is highlighted in the discussion.
50名成年受试者在一项开放式任务中,针对28条儿童情绪前因陈述确定了相应情绪。根据《语言情感词典》在评价和激活维度上对回答进行评分,关于评价(快乐、自豪、舒适>悲伤、害怕、内疚、愤怒)和激活(悲伤、舒适<愤怒、快乐、自豪、害怕、内疚)的先验预期得到了证实。讨论中强调了维度方法在情绪研究中的重要性。
