“…In line with this argumentation, Crocker and Park (2004) have argued that the pursuit of self-esteem can interfere with learning and mastery, because negative feedback and mistakes are interpreted as self-threats instead of chances for improvement. On the other hand, bothering too much with specific regrets and ruminating about single events in one's past and what one should have done better can also be impedimental in moving forward and result in biased reasoning and counterproductive behavior (Sherman & McConnell, 1996). In the worst case, individuals can get into vicious circles out of negative affect and counterfactual thoughts which are characteristic for depression (Roese, 1997).…”

“…In our scenario the players had to pick different color cards to win, whereas in previous studies, the focus was on something that was the same: pick the same color cards, toss the same face coins, pick the same examination questions, and perform to the same standard throughout several baseball games Miller & Gunasegaram, 1990;Segura et al, 2002;Sherman & McConnell, 1996;Spellman, 1997). It is possible that our results show simply that the temporal order effect does not occur when the players must pick different cards.…”

“…Accordingly, the program alters the second player's selection to fit with the winning conditions (Walsh & Byrne, 2001). The mutability of an event, such as the first player's selection, is reduced if it is presupposed (Miller & Gunasegaram, 1990), acting as a background against which later events are perceived (Sherman & McConnell, 1996), and playing an important contextualizing role , as well as when there are prior events known to have caused it (Girotto et al, 1991;Wells et al, 1987).…”

“…Quando, na segunda-feira, depois do último fim-de-semana desportivo da época, os adeptos se juntam para pensar sobre como a sua equipa podia ter tido um melhor desempenho nos dez jogos da liga de basquetebol, eles tendem mentalmente a anular o décimo jogo , portanto, o último, independentemente de como a sua equipa tenha desempenhado os restantes nove jogos antes dessa derrota (Sherman & McConnell, 1996). O efeito da ordem temporal pode traduzir-se na tendência para apagar mentalmente o mais recente acontecimento numa sequência de acontecimentos independentes.…”

“…Para isso procurámos verificar, numa primeira experi-ência, se as crianças tendem a reproduzir o efeito de ordem temporal idêntico ao dos adultos, ou seja, responsabilizar o último acontecimento de uma sequência de acontecimentos independentes (versão contínua), e, por outro lado, se é possível reduzir ou mesmo eliminar o efeito de ordem temporal através da interrupção de uma sequência de acontecimentos independentes, uma vez que nos adultos essa redução é verificada (versão interrompida). Pretendemos também investigar os consequentes julgamentos emocionais decorrentes deste efeito Miller & Gunasegaram, 1990;Sherman & McConnell, 1996).…”
