摘要
感恩是积极心理学中最重要的积极品质之一。早期的研究主要集中于感恩的概念、测量方式以及感恩对于其他心理(如幸福感)和行为的影响以及感恩的干预措施。与之前将感恩作为一种情感体验不同,近年来的研究开始关注感恩的行为层面——感恩表达的积极作用。这一视角有助于将施助者和受惠者作为一个二元关系体来考察其互动关系。研究发现,感恩表达不仅能提高双方的心理健康水平,还有利于提升双方人际关系质量,以及增加亲社会行为发生的可能性,然而其作用机制存在差异。本文将从感恩表达出发,来说明感恩表达与心理健康、人际关系和亲社会行为的关系及作用机制。
Gratitude is one of the most important characters in positive psychology. Previous studies focused on the concept and measurement of gratitude and other factors related to gratitude as well as interventions to improve one's gratitude. What different from before is that recent studies started to focus on the behavioral level, namely gratitude expression instead of being seen as a kind of emotional state. Then benefactor and beneficiary-two side of gratitude, will be seen as a binary relation and researchers investigated the mechanism of the effect of gratitude expression. Many researches have found that gratitude expression could enhance well-being, and interpersonal relationship qual- ity as well pro-social behaviors, although the mechanisms were not similar. This article targeted to explain the rela- tionship between expressing gratitude and mental health, interpersonal relationship, pro-social behaviors as well as the mechanism how gratitude expression contribute to mental health, interpersonal relationship and pro-social behaviors.
