抑郁症中的情绪目标研究述评

Abstract

情绪调节缺陷是抑郁症的特征之一。在相关领域的研究中，研究者主要聚焦于情绪调节策略的研究。基于情绪调节的动机取向，有研究者认为，为了理解抑郁症中的情绪调节，关注情绪目标也是有必要的。情绪目标是指人们想要达到的感觉，它决定了人们是否、何时以及如何调节情绪。因此，抑郁症中的情绪调节缺陷可能受到了所追求的情绪目标的影响。已有研究表明，抑郁症个体与非抑郁症个体对某些情绪的渴望程度有所不同，而且这种差异影响了情绪调节和心理健康。本文主要回顾了这些实验证据，对抑郁症个体的情绪目标相关研究进行了梳理并展望了未来的研究方向。 A defect in emotion regulation is one of the hallmarks of depression. In the research of related fields, researchers mainly focus on the study of emotion regulation strategies. Based on the motivational approach of emotion regulation, some researchers believe that it is necessary to focus on emotional goals in order to understand emotion regulation in depression. Emotional goals are feelings that people want to achieve and determine if, when, and how they regulate their emotions. Thus, deficiencies in emotion regulation in depression may be influenced by the emotional goals which are pursued. Studies have shown that depressed individuals and non-depressed individuals have different levels of desire for certain emotions, and this difference affects emotion regulation and mental health. This paper mainly reviews the experimental evidence, sorts out the relevant researches on emotional goals of depressed individuals, and looks forward to the future research direction.
