  • Influential Depressive Symptoms in Chinese Adolescents

    Open AccessPanpan Zhang, Xu Ma et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of Psychology2026

    In China, the Three-Child Policy has increased the proportion of adolescents with more siblings, offering a context to test resource dilution theory where parental resources per child decline as sibling number grows, potentially affecting mental health. Existing studies link larger sibling counts to higher adolescent depressive symptoms, but rely on scale total scores, ignoring that symptoms vary in impact. This approach masks specific symptom di…

  • Perceptual or conceptual? Modulation of fear generalization pathways by prior learning experience

    Biao FENG, Donghuan Zhang et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica Sinica2025

    摘要: 过度的恐惧泛化是各类焦虑症的核心症状, 人类的恐惧反应既可沿刺激的知觉线索传递, 也可根据刺激的概念信息蔓延, 给患者的生活造成极大负担。本研究采用经典的差异性条件恐惧范式, 以US预期和皮肤电反应为指标, 探讨了恐惧习得前的学习经验对两种恐惧泛化路径的调节作用。本研究共招募50名在校大学生, 在恐惧习得前, 被试被随机分为两组, 一组对刺激的知觉属性进行判断学习(知觉组), 另一组则对刺激的概念属性进行判断学习(概念组), 随后两组被试进行完全相同的恐惧习得和泛化测试。结果显示, 知觉组被试产生了显著的知觉性恐惧泛化, 而概念组被试则表现出明显的概念性恐惧泛化, 先前经验显著影响了被试恐惧泛化的路径。此外, 概念组被试还表现出明显的知觉性恐惧泛化的倾向, 而知觉组却未发现任何概念性恐惧泛化的迹象, 两组被试在恐惧泛化路径上表现出非对称的特点

  • Stimulus processing bias in anxiety-related fear generalisation

    Donghuan Zhang, Min Fan et al.ARTICLECognition & Emotion2025References: 23

    In fear differential conditioning, stimuli that resemble the conditioned stimulus (CS+) are more likely to trigger fear responses. Excessive fear responses on stimuli not like CS + are often associated with anxiety. However, the threat judgments process and how this process manifests itself differently in subgroups with different generalisation rule applications, is unclear. This study examines whether anxiety biases the threat decision process i…

  • Secure attachment priming inhibits the generalization of conditioned fear

    Open AccessXu Li, Yong Yang et al.ARTICLEBMC Psychology2024

    The findings suggest that activating participants' representations of secure attachment via imagination effectively attenuates the generalization of perceptual fear at the physiological level. The inhibitory effect of secure attachment priming appears to be distinct from positive emotional modulation and remains unaffected by individual trait attachment styles. These results offer novel insights and avenues for the prevention and clinical interve…

  • The influence of word concreteness on acquired positive emotion association

    Open AccessYan Jin, Yue Ma et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica2023

    The ability to acquire positive emotions from words is essential to psychological well-being. How word concreteness affects the process of positive emotion acquisition remains unknown. Here, using an evaluation conditioning paradigm, participants learned the association between pseudowords and concrete/abstract and positive/neutral words. Behavior and event-related potential data were recorded while participants performed emotional recognition ta…

  • Effects of prediction error and acute stress on retrieval-extinction of fear memories of different strengths

    Junjiao LI, Wei Chen et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica Sinica2021

    Under the framework of Reconsolidation Interference of conditioned fear memory, Prediction Error (PE) has been demonstrated as a necessary condition of memory destabilization. However, the role of PE in destabilizing fear memories of different strengths is unclear. The degree of PE that is needed to effectively reactivate fear memories may be dependent on the strength of memory. It is unknown whether the PE used to reactivate weak memories is als…

  • Gender difference in retrieval-extinction of conditioned fear memory

    Wei Chen, Xiaoyi LIN et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica Sinica2021

    For nearly half a century, the memory reconsolidation theory, which believes that even memories that have been consolidated would be reactivated during the retrieval process and temporarily return to an unstable state, has been continuously developed. Based on this understanding, the researchers proposed the retrieval-extinction paradigm. That is, after successfully learning the pairing rule between a conditioned stimulus (CS) and unconditioned s…

  • Life Satisfaction, Self-Esteem, and Loneliness Among LGB Adults and Heterosexual Adults in China

    Jingchu Hu, Jize Hu et al.ARTICLEJournal of Homosexuality2016Cited by: 10References: 31

    Low levels of life satisfaction have been linked to low self-esteem and loneliness, but this association has never been tested directly in LGB (lesbian/gay/bisexual) populations. We compared 275 Chinese LGB adults to 275 demographic-matched Chinese heterosexual controls on life satisfaction, self-esteem, and loneliness. LGB adults reported lower levels of self-esteem and higher levels of loneliness than heterosexuals, but similar levels of overal…

  • The Effects of Emotion of the Autobiographical Memory on the Implicit Retrieval of the Related Information

    Xifu Zheng, Xi-Fu ZHENG et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica Sinica2013

    摘要: 本研究主要考察自传体记忆本身的情绪是否影响该记忆相关信息的内隐提取过程。取大学生15人完成实验, 实验分为两部分:记忆提取和词汇判断。首先在记忆提取阶段, 要求被试根据词对(形容词-中性名词)提取积极、消极和中性情绪色彩的自传体记忆事件。接着在词汇判断任务中, 要求被试对包含提取过记忆的中性名词的词语进行词和非词的判断, 并且记录相应的脑电波。结果发现:(1)被试按要求成功提取了积极、消极和中性三类自传体记忆事件。词汇判断任务中, 内隐提取三类自传体记忆信息的反应时和正确率均无显著差异。(2)相比于积极、中性自传体记忆信息, 消极自传体记忆信息提取的过程中的ERP波幅更大, 更偏向于正向。这表明自传体记忆信息的内隐提取受到记忆本身情绪的影响, 消极自传体记忆信息提取需要付出更多资源

  • Inhibition of Return in Trait Anxieties Under Different Cues

    Yu Zhang, Zhang Yu et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica Sinica2013

    摘要: 焦虑与注意偏向的研究是近年来情绪与认知领域的热点。为探讨特质焦虑个体的注意偏向特点及其返回抑制能力是否受不同线索的调节, 采用特质焦虑量表筛选高特质焦虑大学生29名, 低特质焦虑大学生28名完成线索-靶子任务。要求被试在提示线索消失后, 对位置进行快而准地辨别反应, 分别探索中性和情绪性提示线索下被试的返回抑制。结果发现:(1)在中性线索条件下, 高焦虑个体平均反应时慢于低焦虑个体。(2) 在情绪线索条件下, 高焦虑个体在负性线索下的反应时小于在正性线索下的反应时; 高、低焦虑个体在各种SOA条件下均出现了返回抑制, 但各组返回抑制量受到情绪线索的调节:在正性情绪线索条件下, 两组返回抑制量没有显著差异; 在负性情绪线索下, 高焦虑个体返回抑制量显著小于低焦虑个体。这表明, (1)焦虑个体的注意偏向受到刺激信息的影响:只对负性情绪线索出现注意警觉; (2)只有在涉及负性情绪信息时高、低焦虑个体返回抑制能力才有差异, 高焦虑个体存在对负性情绪线索的抑制困难

  • Reduced Specificity of Autobiographical Memory in Traumatized Adolescents

    Xue-Jun Chen, Yuesheng Huang et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica Sinica2013

    摘要: 结合经典的自传体记忆测验(AMT)和反转-自传体记忆测验(AMT-R)探究创伤青少年自传体记忆具体性减少的原因。首先通过创伤事件终身经历问卷-学生版(LIET-S)和创伤后症状自评量表(CROPS)对630名青少年进行筛查, 然后结合访谈, 并采用儿童事件冲击量表-修订版(CRIES)测量创伤程度, 最终选取有创伤后症状的青少年63名, 分为高创伤组和低创伤组, 另无创伤经历的青少年30名作为控制组。三组被试均参加AMT和AMT-R实验。结果发现, 在AMT中, 创伤青少年表现出自传体记忆具体性减少的特点, 且创伤后症状越严重, 具体性减少越明显; 在AMT-R中, 创伤青少年提取的具体记忆数量与控制组无显著差异。结果表明, 创伤青少年自传体记忆具体性的减少是情感调节的结果
