The subliminal Emotion Stroop Means, as a new method of studying the relation between emotion and cognition, it combines the classical Emotion Stroop task and Affective priming task. To this day, hardly any study have studyed and discussioned the influencing factors of the subliminal Emotion Stroop Means elaborately. This study uses the subliminal Emotion Stroop Means, the emotion stimulate being presented under threshold, so as to confirm when participants processing the non-emotional target stimulates, the infromation that he receive comes from the emotional reaction that being provoked by the emotional stimulates, rather than the irrelevant variable that being caused by other physical characteristic of the emotioal stimulates.This study make up of three affiliated studys, use the middle school students as the study object, and discussed the influencing factors of the subliminal Emotion Stroop Means systematically. Study one, use the pictures and words as the priming stimulates, with the stimulates being presented under threshold, so as to study the subliminal Emotion Stroop effect of the middle school students, disscussed the affect influenced by the type and value of the priming stimulates to the study result. Study two, Changing the diffculty of the cognitive assignments to disscusse the affect influenced by the diffculty of the cognitive assignment to the subliminal Emotion Stroop Effects. Study three, disscussing the affect influenced by qualityof the cognitive assignments to the the subliminal Emotion Stroop Effects. And acquire the conclusion and decuction as follows.Conclusions:(1) Both pictures and words can bring subliminal Emotion Stroop Effects.(2) The type of the priming stimulate will influence the reaction time of the participants, as the priming stimulates, the pictures will bring more distinct subliminal Emotion Stroop Effects than the words.(3) When the type of the priming stimulate is word, the reaction time under the negative condition is less than positive and neutral conditions. When the type of the priming stimulate is picture, the reaction time under the negative condition is slightly bigger than positive conditions, but both slightly less than neutral condition.(4) The more difficult coginitive assignments will delay the reaction time of the participants as compared to the more easy coginitive assignments.(5) When the emotional value of the emotional cognitive assigments is same with the emotional value of the priming stimulates, the reaction time of the participants is shorter. When the emotional value of the emotional cognitive assigments is not same with the emotional value of the priming stimulates, the reaction time of the participants is longer.(6) The affect of cognitive assigmen's quality to participants's reaction time is not notable.Decuctions:(1) Emotional reponse is prior to cognition, the emotional stimulates can be processed before people notice it, and influence people's action.(2) The subliminal Emotion Stroop Effects will weaken gradually with the growing of the age. The individual subliminal Emotion Stroop Effects can reflect the ability of controling the emotion, and it can be considered that a dynamic and developmental relations exists between the emotion and cognition.(3) Compare to children and aldult, juvenile(Middle school students) don't show more extrem or negative emotion.
