人们对事物的心理表征具有不同的抽象水平即解释水平，解释水平取决于人们所感知的与认知客体的心理距离，进而影响了人们的判断与决策。大量研究表明，人们倾向于更多地使用反映事物内涵的一般的、核心的、去背景化的特征来解释心理距离遥远的事物，更多使用偶然的、外围的、背景化的特征来解释心理距离较近的事物。未来的研究应明确区分解释水平本身、解释水平的表现形式和解释水平的前导变量；应更关注其他心理变量在心理距离、解释水平、判断与决策因果链条中的调节或中介作用。

Construal Level Theory is a theory about how different dimensions of psychological distance influence individual＇s mental construal of objects, and how the abstractness or concreteness of construal determine individual＇s judgment and decision making. A large amount of research have shown that people tend to construal psychologically distant objects in terms of high level, abstract and decontextualized aspects, whereas construal the same object in terms of low level, detailed and contextualized features if the object is psychologically near. Future research should discriminate among construal level itself, the operationalization of construal level and the antecedents of construal level. It is also important to include other psychological variables such as affect and motivation into the causal chain of psychological distance-construal level-preference and choice.
