description | Recent conceptualizations of eudaimonic entertainment and aesthetic experience
highlight the role of emotions in stimulating rewarding experiences of insight,
meaning, and reflectiveness among entertainment audiences. The current evidence
is mainly correlational, however. This study used an experimental approach to
examine the assumed causal influence of being moved, on reflective thoughts.
Participants were randomly assigned to see one of two versions of a short film
that elicited different levels of feeling moved, while keeping the cognitive,
propositional content constant. Feeling moved was conceptualized and
operationalized as an affective state characterized by negative valence,
moderate arousal, mixed affect, and by the labeling of the experience in terms
of feeling moved. As expected, the more moving film version elicited more
reflective thoughts, which in turn predicted individuals' overall
positive experience of the film. The effect of the film stimulus on reflective
thoughts was fully mediated by individuals' affective state. |
