Self-affirmation maintains its integrity by affirming its own value that is irrelevant to the threat field,and handles the defensive response to threatening information in a fair and objective manner.Self-affirmation increases the input of attention resources to threatening information,so that individuals can deal with information that threatens self-identity and group identity more objectively and justly.But it is not clear how self-assurance reduces threat.Different ways of self affirmation play different roles in threatening information.The mechanism of self affirmation may vary in different contexts.This study aims to explore the cognitive mechanism of self affirmation in different emotional states by studying the influence of self-affirmation on individual attention bias.Two experiments were designed in In this paper,the attention of self-affirmation to defensive information and its cognitive mechanism are discussed in experiment 1;Experiment2 discusses the role of self-affirmation in positive emotion and its attentional bias mechanism.In this study,a 2(self-affirmation: internal and external)x 2(clue type: valid,invalid)x 3(image properties: positive,negative,neutral)mixed design,The independent variable is self-affirmation,cue type and image property,and dependent variable is the reaction time.Give the subjects different emotions video to induce positive emotion and negative emotion,Complete intrinsic self-affirmation and extrinsic self-affirmation tasks.And complete the attention bias task.Analysis of variance was used to explore the difference of self-affirmation to different emotional stimuli.Combined with the experimental results,the following conclusions are drawn:(1)When the negative emotion is activated,the component of theattention bias of the intrinsic self-affirmation is attention vigilance,which means that positive emotional images and negative emotional images attract theattention of extrinsic self-affirmation individuals;the component of the attention bias in positive emotional images of the extrinsic self-affirmation is attention vigilance.(2)With positive emotion priming,the component of theattention bias in positive emotional images of the intrinsic self-affirmation is attention vigilance,and the negative emotional images were found to be difficult to overcome;the attentional bias of self-affirmation for emotionally stimul reflect difficulty in disengaging attention fromipositive emotional images and negative emotional images.(3)Whether negative or positive,the intrinsic self-affirmation is certainly more effective than the extrinsic self-affirmation.
