道德与情绪词语的空间隐喻表征及其自动联结机制研究

通过两个实验对正负性词语的空间隐喻现象及机制进行了探索研究．实验1采用词语线索提示的刺激探测任务范式，研究了正负性道德行为及情绪词语的空间表征对注意转移的影响，结果发现，正负性道德行为和情绪词语的空间表征对注意存在定向激活作用，揭示了极性词语存在空间隐喻性；实验2采用内隐联想测验的实验范式，对实验1所揭示的现象及其机制进行了探索分析，结果发现，正负性词语的空间属性差异是存在于内隐层面的自动联结，即空间隐喻词语与垂直方位属性之间建立的联系是自动化、无意识的．

Spatial Metaphor Representations of Morality and Emotion Words and Their Automatic Connection Mechanism

This paper investigated the spatial metaphor phenomenon and mechanism of positive and negative words by two experiments. The Experiment 1 used the paradigm of stimulus detection task to study the influences of spatial representations of positive and negative words related to morality and emotion on the shifts of attention. The results revealed the directed activation effect of the spatial representations of the words on attention. It also proved the existence of spatial metaphor in polarity words （positive-above, negative-below）. The Experiment 2 used the experimental paradigm of the implicit association test to explore the phenomenon and mechanism found in Experiment 1. The results showed the spatial attribute differences of positive and negative words related to moral behaviors and emotion were the automatic connections which occurred in the implicit level, namely, the establishment of the relationships between spatial metaphor words and vertical position attribute was automatic and unconscious.
