社会排斥和目标刺激的情绪交互影响情绪冲突控制

The Interactive Impact of Social Exclusion and The Emotion of Target Stimulus on Emotional Conflict Control

采用Cyberball任务和面孔-词Stroop任务探讨社会排斥和目标刺激的情绪是否交互影响情绪冲突控制。结果显示,社会排斥对情绪冲突控制的影响随着目标刺激情绪的变化而变化。具体表现为,当目标刺激为愤怒面孔时,排斥组被试与接纳组被试在反应时上表现出相似的情绪Stroop效应。然而,当目标刺激为高兴面孔时,排斥组被试比接纳组被试在反应时上表现出更大的情绪Stroop效应。该结果提示,在面孔-词Stroop任务中判断高兴面孔时,社会排斥增强了被试对任务无关消极信息的注意。该发现有助于深入理解社会排斥增加个体罹患情绪障碍风险的原因。

The aim of the present study was to explore whether the impact of social exclusion on emotional conflict control varied depending on positive or negative target.Participants were divided into two groups according to two Cyberball paradigm conditions(social exclusion/inclusion).Both groups were required to complete a faceword Stroop task.The results showed that when the target face was positively valenced,the Stroop effect was larger during social exclusion than during social inclusion.In contrast,when the target face was negatively valenced,the Stroop effect was similar during social exclusion and during social inclusion.These results suggest that the impact of social exclusion on emotional conflict control varies depending on positive or negative target.These findings may be helpful for our understanding of the role of social exclusion in emotional disorders.
