敬畏對道德冒險行為的影響

通過操縱敬畏與快樂（實驗1）和敬畏與中性（實驗2），採用特定領域風險評估和情緒自我調控問卷，考察敬畏對冒險行為的影響及情緒調控能力的調節作用，共148人參與研究。結果表明：1.與快樂相比，敬畏會降低道德冒險行為，兩者對經濟、健康、娛樂和社交的影響無顯著差異；2.在道德決策時，具有較高情緒抑制水準的個體，體驗敬畏比體驗快樂更保守，在經濟決策時則更冒險；3.敬畏與中性情緒對特定維度冒險行為的影響無顯著差異。
The current research investigated how awe would affect people’s risk-taking propensity across different domains and whether the effect would be moderated by their emotion regulation strategies. In two experiments, 148 participants were induced to feel awe versus happiness (Experiment 1) or versus neutral emotion (Experiment 2). After the mood induction, participants completed scales assessing their risktaking propensity in different domains and emotional regulation strategies. We found that participants who experienced awe showed less risk taking in the ethical domain (but not other domains) than those who experienced happiness. In addition, participants with a higher level of emotional suppression showed less risk taking in the ethical domain but more risk taking in the financial domain in the awe condition(versus happiness condition). Finally, participants in the awe and neutral emotion condition did not show any difference in risk-taking propensity across domains, suggesting that awe may have similar effects as neutral emotion on risk taking.
