The Influence Of The Social Schema To The Cognition: The Separation Of The Schema Of Different Subclass

In this study, we summarize the former study and suggest the division of the schema. From the view of object, we can divide schema into two part:the social schema and the nature schema. Social schema is the schema which have relations with humans. From the view of object, we can divide schema into two part:the self schema and the schema of others; from the view of content, we can divide schema into two parts: the personal schema and the interpersonal schema. We use the self reference paradigm and the technology of ERP to explore the difference between the processing of personal information and interpersonal information in three different process. And then prove the division of the schema.In experimental one and experimental two, we find about 50 colleges joined our experiment. Half of them are men. In the study, we presented different questions and require them to judge. In this way we can make objects process the information in different way. An hour later, we present some words, some of them have presented in the first stage, some of them have never appeared. Objects must judge the word new or old. So we can prove our hypothesis through their memory scores. At last, we find:(1) In the process of self reference, people have better memory scores than other three process. It supports our hypothesis that social schema can be divided into two part:the self schema and the schema of others. (2)In the process of mother reference and LeiFeng reference, people have better memory scores to the social information than to the personal information. It supports our hypothesis that the schema of others can be divided into two parts:personal schema and the interpersonal schema.In experimental three, we find 25 colleges joined our experiment. In the study, we presented different questions and require them to judge. In this way we can make objects process the information in different way. At the same time, we record their brain wave. The result indicate that in the process of self reference, both kinds of information elicited N250 component in 200-300ms,but the amplitude elicited by social information is bigger than that elicited by personal information. Accord to the priori study, N250 is the index of consistency of the new information and the old information in the brain. More bigger the amplitude elicited by information, more easy the information processed by people. It support our hypothesis that self schema include personal schema and interpersonal schema. In the process of mother reference, both kinds of information elicited P3 component in 450-650ms, but the amplitude elicited by personal information is bigger than that elicited by social information. Accord to the priori study, P3 is the index of distribution of the cognitive resource. More smaller the amplitude elicited by information, more easy the information processed by people. So it means people process social information well than personal information. It fit in with the result of experimental one and experimental two, it support the hypothesis that the schema of others include personal schema and interpersonal schema again.In short, accord to these studies, we proved the division of schema preliminary. From the view of object, we can divide social schema into two part:the self schema and the schema of others; From the view of content, we can divide social schema into two part:the personal schema and the interpersonal schema. In the self schema, personal schema is stronger; though in the mother schema and LeiFeng schema, interpersonal schema is stronger.
