The Effects Of Positive Emotions On Shift Processing On The Deaf

We follow task-switching paradigm, a single chinese character (verb/noun) and double-digit integer (singular/dual) classification task, so that was engaged in repetitive tasks (AA, BB,...) and switch tasks(AB, BA,...), respectively, repetitive tasks and switch tasks were compared. In this study, the within-subject design experiment investigated the impact of the shift processing of positive emotions for deaf students, in three acts.Before the experiment, the application of Raven Standard Progressive Matrices from Xinyang City in special schools to select the deaf33people the level of intelligence in the middle and more than.Cognitive conditions, the task to repeat the correct rate was significantly lower than the correct rate of task switching (p<0.00l), that task switching is repeated with the task of processing mechanisms may be different. Digital cost, or digital switch cost, the description of the Deaf during the shift processing, there are also shift processing. Task under the positive emotional response (switch or repeated) response was significantly longer than the response to cognitive conditions. Conflict with previous conclusions on the positive emotions promote task switching. For this phenomenon, we thought it was because of human cognitive resources are limited, and to stimulate the identification of need to occupy cognitive resources, and shift processing is an important function of the central executive, and its task is more complex, positive emotions this process does not promote the reaction, but the reaction slows down. Reaction time task response (either switch or repeat), negative emotions, significantly longer than the reaction under the cognitive conditions. This is consistent with previous studies but extend when the negative emotions that we and our predecessors reduces the sake of cognitive flexibility, in turn reduces task switching speed of response, resulting in the reaction. Conclusion: We found that deaf students in the existence of evidence of consideration of task switching, which not only illustrates the Deaf and the normal population have the mechanism of the shift processing; Emotional inhibition task switching.
