Abstract
We examined patterns of psychophysiological arousal related to remembering and narrating distressing events, as
compared to arousal while engaged in positive and neutral recall tasks. Narrating distressing events entailed increased arousal
relative to remembering those events. Analyses of combined data showed that aggregate arousal during narration was related to
post-narration reports of distress and self-perceptions. These results support conceptions of narration as an effortful form of
regulation, and suggest insights about the process through which narrative construction may promote psychological and
physiological benefits.
期刊介绍：
Narrative Inquiry is devoted to providing a forum for theoretical, empirical, and methodological work on narrative. Articles appearing in Narrative Inquiry draw upon a variety of approaches and methodologies in the study of narrative as a way to give contour to experience, tradition, and values to next generations. Particular emphasis is placed on theoretical approaches to narrative and the analysis of narratives in human interaction, including those practiced by researchers in psychology, linguistics and related disciplines.
