摘要: 书面情感表达(written emotional expression)是指在一定时间内按照特定主题对个人情感和想法进行表达的写作。有实验证据表明书面情感表达可以提高个体处理压力性生活事件的能力。早期的传统心理治疗领域对其理论研究主要集中在思想和感觉的言语表达方面。然而，最近创伤性生活经验的书写表达对心理和生理健康的改善研究开始崭露头角。本文试图对国内外有关书面情感表达的研究成果进行梳理，主要介绍了书面情感表达的概念、研究范式、相关理论、影响因素，并提出以往研究存在的问题和未来的研究方向。
Abstract: Written emotional expression is a kind of writing to express one’s emotion and thought according to some special topics within a certain time. Evidences have supported that written emotional ex-pression can enhance individuals’ ability to cope with stressful life events. The theory study of early traditional psychotherapy was mainly focused on the language of thoughts and feelings. However, the studies in which writing about traumatic events may improve individuals’ psychological and physiological health begin to emerge. In this paper, a comprehensive literature review was made with regard to written emotional expression at home and abroad, and then the definition, research paradigm, relevant theories and impact factors were introduced. At last, it put forward the limitations about this field and the direction in the future.
