On the basis of the study of College Students' emotional quality,this paper makes a more in-depth study of the sense of curiosity of the emotional subordinates in the emotional quality system.Curiousness refers to the emotions that people are curious about new things.It can encourage people to explore behaviors in order to obtain new information and solve problems.Psychology and educators in our country regard curiousness as the main emotion and motivation in teaching.Curious can not only promote memory and learning,but also be an indispensable factor in creative activities.This study selects college students as the research object,and uses cognitive knowledge as experimental material to explore the influence of curiosity on the learning effect of college students.In the first experiment,individuals with different levels of curiosity(high curiosity,low curiosity)and two types of curiosity materials(knowledge curiosity and interest curiosity)are the independent variables,and the memory performance of the material is the dependent variable to further explore the curiosity level and curiosity materials.The impact of types on the learning outcomes of college students.The results show that individuals with high curiosity have better learning outcomes than individuals with low curiosity levels;individuals have better memory of knowledge curious materials than interest curiosity materials.The interaction between curiosity level and two types of curiosity materials is significant.Further simple effect analysis shows that the individual's memory effect on knowledge curious materials is significantly better than interest curious materials,whether it is high curiosity group or low curiosity group.In the second experiment,the types of curious materials(knowledge curiosity,interest curiosity)were used as independent variables.The amplitude and memory scores of ERPs were dependent variables,and the SPN amplitudes induced by the two types of materials were discussed.The analysis of the early components of the SPN amplitude shows that there is an interaction between the type of curiosity and the position of the electrode points.Further analysis of the simple effect reveals that the curiosity of the knowledge and the curious curiosity reveals the significant SPN amplitude of the front and rear electrode points.dThe late component analysis of the SPN amplitude showed that for the knowledge curiosity,the study found a significant difference between the left and right electrodes on the posterior side of the frontal lobe,and the SPN amplitude of theright electrode was significantly higher than that of the left electrode.
