Abstract


Mood and executive functions is a hot topic in cognitive psychology research in recent years , the research is the main direction of the mood and executive function in hot and cold execution . Zelazo and Muller will be performed in accordance with the physiological mechanism function is divided into cold ( cool ) and thermal ( hot ) two different execution : the cold execution is to the emotional problems caused by purely abstract execution , hot execution with the emotions involved in the evaluation task due to perform . Through the literature search , we also found that the emotional stimuli used in the thermal perform research in two ways: the emotional words / pictures and video, but some research on two emotional stimuli effect comparison rare. Second , positive emotions and negative emotional effect , the existing conclusions of the study , there are two conflicting points : emotional negativity bias theory is that negative emotional stimuli has an advantage in cognitive processing , and cognitive-behavioral research conclusions clear compared to negative emotions start was positive emotions start faster response . The purpose of this study is to explore the different emotional states , the characterization of material on the central executive function . Study design three experiments : (1) video clips to start the emotional state suppress task experiment ( test material for the characterization of materials of different emotional stimuli ) ; (2 ) video clips start emotional state different from the the refresh task of experiment ( test material emotional stimuli characterization of materials); (3 ) video clips emotional state started the conversion task experiment ( test materials for the characterization of materials of different emotional stimuli ) . The experimental results show that : (1) video clips can start this study were different emotional states ; ( 2 ) different emotions start state of each sub- component of the central executive function measure affects both ; (3 ) characterization of materials on the central the function conversion tasks have an impact ; ( 4 ) characterization of material and emotional start state of the central executive function conversion task the superimposed effect ; (5 ) gender is an important factor affecting the central executive function measure .
