Throughout the past 50 years our country in the field of art theory of the progress made, we feel deeply the several years since reform and opening up in this area asked by the tremendous changes taken place. The reason, in addition to Chinese scholars finally won an unprecedented and relaxed, free of the environment, to break the ideological shackles of rigid and unprecedented access to the liberation of this fundamental reason. As a result of increased over the years on the introduction of Western art theory and research, thereby greatly broaden our academic vision to play an important role. It should be said that in this specialized art music theory and theoretical fields, the situation is this. In this music psychology, western music scientists have done a lot of pioneering work. And the traditional Chinese music is clearly the theoretical study of these relatively weak. Thus, although research in the field of psychology music data is expanding, but at the same time it must be recognized that this area need more research, because only by doing so, we act on the music phenomenon more in-depth understanding can be be guaranteed. When we recognize the significance of music as signal transmission, in the form and structure of its content into a help impart information contained in the emotional significance of the tools. Emotional responses to specific music to stimulate structural factors are closely related, researchers of this thesis recently conducted an in-depth exploration, and tried to test the impact of these factors is listening to the emotional rewards. To investigate the effect of undergraduate students' mood to their mood-congruent memory, we had divided this study into two parts: the first part is an experiment one , the purpose of the study is that evoked feelings through the music of a qualitative research study music structural factors - speed and rhythm of the emotional impact. Explore the use of the word report, written request to be on trial every election of a music special emotional response. The second part of that experiment two and experimental three purpose of the study is that the structural factors that music is the state of mind had an impact on the consistency of memory. This study used the process dissociation procedure the experiment materials were composed of 120 words of affective balance included 40positive,40 neutral and 40 negative words. The things, including the stimulus presenting under the control of E-Prime, the design was 2(group)×3(word valence)×2(test type).in the experiment, there were two sessions, study and test, and an interruption task between study and test. The subjects were required to assess the words, complete following interruption tasks. Then recognitions tests were in order administered. Before the study stage and test stage had been started, let subjects participate the procedure of the mood induction. The PDP function was used to calculate the R and A. According to the research conducted by the results of the objective processing and analysis, the following conclusions can be drawn:(1) The structure of music on the emotional factors has had an impact. Based on the experimental results of a study, the speed of the music that emotional impact is very significant, but the pace of emotional impact is not significant.(2) The structure of music on the mind had an impact on the consistency of memory. In Experiment 1, the conclusion of the study is that, by the speed of the trial there was a significant emotional impact of the experimental findings for a second experiment and experimental three, respectively Slow music evoked the test was negative emotions, use Music was induced by rapid test positive sentiment. To study the negative and positive mood music structural factors - speed, whether the consistency of mind and memory were also affected. Experimental two of the three experiments and the conclusions of combining the speed of the music come to mind memories consistency produced a significant impact.(3) Consistency of the individual characteristics of mind.①The speed of music as a factor inducing conditions, state of mind not only exists in the memory consistency explicit memory, and there is also implicit memory. The two experiments and three experiments in the experimental results of a study conducted on the premise of, and the two experiments and experimental studies have shown that three Mood-congruent memories not only in the outer explicit memory, and implicit memory tests, also is very obvious. In this study, an experiment this conclusion is premised on the conclusion, therefore deduced the existence of consistency in the mood of explicit memory and implicit memory, the music may be factors.②At the same time, experiments two and three has concluded that the trial was an emotional titer every word from the intentional and unintentional between extraction results are not related to the explicit memory and implicit memory are two different characteristics of memory.③And, in experiments two and three of the experiment, male and female on the positive, negative and neutral picture from the intentional and unintentional extraction does not exist significant differences that explicit memory and implicit memory are not gender differences.
