摘　　要：情感启发式是指在判断与决策的过程中,个体会有意识或无意识的利用自己对任务选项的主观情感反应来做出决策。具体来说,个体头脑中物体和事件的表征会激起不同水平的情感体验,这种不同的体验会对所有的表征做出积极或消极的标记,人们根据这些被标记的体验来做出判断和决策。情感启发式是个体在决策中常用的策略。目前,关于情感启发式心理机制的解释主要有情感启发式模型和双加工理论。此外,情感启发式的影响因素主要包括经验、时间压力、可评估性和计数能力等。未来的研究应主要集中在探究情感启发式的产生根源和进一步扩展情感启发式应用领域的研究。The affect heuristic refers to that people consult the positive and negative feelings consciously or unconsciously associated with the mental representations of the task in the process of making a judgment or decision. In the current paper, we fi rst introduced the defi nition and importance of affect heuristic. Then we reviewed studies on the affect heuristic, Summarizes its psychological mechanisms and some factors. At the end of the paper, we gave several suggestions regarding to the directions for future research. Just as imaginability, memorability, and similarity serve as cues for probability judgments（e.g., the availability and representativeness heuristics）, affect may serve as a cue for many important judgments. Affect may also serve as a cue for many important judgments and decisions（Kahneman, 2003）. Affective responses tend to occur rapidly and automatically. As such, using an overall, readily available affective impression can be quicker and easier—and thus sometimes more effi cient—than weighing the pros and cons or retrieving relevant examples from memory, especially when the required judgment or decision is complex or cognitive resources are limited. Researchers have noted that the affect heuristic is widespread in consuming decisions, environment protections, fi nancial investments and justice fi eld. Psychological mechanisms of affect heuristic mainly include affect heuristic model（AHM） and dual-process theory. According to AHM, individual＇cognition for risks and gains is always associated with the affect evaluation when judging risks and gains of behaviors. That is, when certain behaviors are perceived ＂like＂, it may be regarded as low-risk and high-income. It may be considered as high-risk and low-income when certain behaviors are perceived ＂dislike＂. Thus AHM shows that in process of cognition for risk behaviors, affect evaluation comes fi rst, and judgment of risks and gains follows. Dual-process theory argues that there are two systems to work in processing informa
