From nostalgia, through communion, to psychological benefits: the moderating role of narcissism
ABSTRACT Nostalgia, a sentimental longing for one’s past, is a social, self-relevant, and ambivalent (albeit predominantly positive) emotion. It fosters tenderness, social connectedness, life meaning, self-continuity, self-esteem, optimism, and inspiration. In two experiments, we manipulated nostalgia and examined mechanisms underlying its psychological benefits. Two communal mechanisms emerged consistently: love-friendship and unity-togetherness. The findings establish the sociality of nostalgia, identifying the communion mechanisms of love-friendship and unity-togetherness as mediators of nostalgia’s benefits. The findings also identified narcissism as a moderator of nostalgia’s benefits: although both high and low narcissists gained benefits via increased communion, high narcissists also experienced a reduction in some benefits due to decreased agency.
期刊介绍:
Work on self and identity has a special place in the study of human nature, as self-concerns are arguably at the center of individuals" striving for well-being and for making sense of one"s life. Life goals develop and are influenced by one"s view of what one is like, the way one would ideally like to be (or would like to avoid being), as well as one"s perceptions of what is feasible. Furthermore, conceptions of self and the world affect how one"s progress towards these goals is monitored, evaluated, redirected, re-evaluated, and pursued again. Thus, the “self” as a construct has far-reaching implications for behavior, self-esteem, motivation, experience of emotions and the world more broadly, and hence for interpersonal relationships, society, and culture.
