摘要
解释水平理论(construal level theory,CLT)提出,人们对事件的解释会随着对事件心理距离(时间距离、空间距离、社会距离、真实性)的知觉而发生系统改变,从而影响人们的反应。具体来说,当知觉事件的距离较远时,人们使用抽象、本质和总体的特征对事件进行表征(高水平解释);当知觉距离较近时,人们倾向于以具体、表面和局部的特征对事件进行表征(低水平解释)。解释水平的这些差异有着重要的心理意义:在远距离条件下,与高水平解释相关的特征在个体的决策和判断等过程中起着重要作用;而在近距离条件下,与低水平解释相关的特征在决策和判断中更受重视。
Construal level theory distance, conceptualized proposes that psychological as the subjective experiences of time, place ,people and hypothetical ahernatives to reality,influences an individual＇ s responses to events by changing the way people mentally represent these events. Specifically, high-level construals are more likely to be used in the representation of distal events and low-level construals to be used in the representation of proximal events. The differences in representations bring about significant psychological consequences：the value associated with high-level construal was more influential in choices for distal events, whereas the value associated with low-level construal was more crucial for proximal events.
