Enjoying the experience plays an important role in life,which is of great significance to the development of the individual.In recent years,With widespread availability of camera phones,photo-taking has become a daily and ubiquitous activity for millions of people,Stapinski(2013)& Wright(2012)some business owners and performers have banned cameras from restaurants and concerts,arguing that taking photos will ruin individuals experiences.Kreider(2015)take photos will increase enjoyment.Although taking photos is common,previous studies have rarely explored the effect of taking photos on the enjoyment of experience.Others critical factor that has been shown to affect enjoyment is the extent to which people are engaged with the experience(Csikszentmihalyi,1997;Higgins,2006),previous studies have focused on engagement influence on students' learning and teachers' classroom teaching,less research engagement influence on individual experiences.Antonovsky(1979)found that sense of coherence(SOC)is a psychological disposition rather than a personality trait,which is one of the important indicator of individual physical and mental health.Siliwer(2013)believed that sense of coherence was not the decisive factor affecting mental health,but the important resource for promoting physical and mental health,Sense of coherence play a mediating and moderating role in mental health and enjoyment of experience.Hence,learning more about the factors that make those experiences more or less enjoyable is important.The study included three experiments.Using Kristin Diehl's research paradigm,the experiment one used the emotional priming paradigm to activate the positive emotions and negative emotions respectively.Further explore the effects of positive and negative emotions on the enjoyment of the photo condition and the no-photo condition.In the experiment 1,we activate the two emotions and simulate the experience of taking photos by viewing the pictures presented by the computer,However,the participants did not immerse themselves in the real environment.an individual mainly mimics experience and took photos on a computer,However,it did not involve active participation in the event.In the experiment 2,we use a different paradigm where participants partake in an actual arts-and-crafts activity in the lab.Observe the influence of the photo condition and non-photo condition on the enjoyment experience in different engagement(high,low).In experiment 3,We will focus on the mechanism of Sense of coherence.finding psychological consistency is positively correlated with enjoyment experience(r =.68,p <.01).In the photo group,the level of psychological consistency of the individual(t=7.99,p <.001)was better than that of the non-photo group;It focuses on the mediating effect of sense of coherence on taking photos and enjoyment experience.Results are as follows:(1)When the experience was more positive,individuals in the photo condition enjoyed the experience more than individuals in the no-photo condition;the participants in the photo condition under positive emotions were more enjoyment than those who were given the negative emotion.(2)When participants were observing the craft project,individuals in the photo condition enjoyed the experience significantly more than individuals in the no-photo condition;participants were building the craft themselves,individuals in the no photo condition have more enjoyment than individuals in the photo condition.(3)Photo-taking and sense of coherence and enjoyment experience are related to each other.Taking photos has a direct predictive effect on enjoyment experience,sense of coherence there is a partial mediating effect of photo taking on enjoyment experience.
