Abstract

The present study was conducted to investigate the influences of emotion priming and the number of negation words on the task of sentential predicate reasoning in groups with or without anxiety symptoms. 3 types of primed emotions and 2 types of stimulus and 3 conditions of negation words were used as a within-subject variable. The subjects were instructed to make facial expressions that match the directions, and were asked to choose the correct answer from the given examples. Mixed repeated measured ANOVA analyses on reaction time first showed main effects for the variables of emotion, stimulus, number of negation words and anxiety level, and the interaction effects for the negation words x anxiety combination. These results are presumably suggested to reflect that externally intervening emotion works on language comprehension in a way that anxiety could delay task processing speed regardless of the emotion and stimulus type, meanwhile the number of negation words can slower language processing only in a anxiety group. Implications and limitations were discussed for the future work.

본 연구는 정상 및 불안 집단 대학생을 대상으로 하나 또는 그 이상의 부정적 어휘를 포함하는 서술어의 의미추론 과정에서 정서유형 및 부정어휘 출현의 정도가 과제처리 속도에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 수행되었다. 정서 3유형, 자극 2유형 그리고 부정어휘 횟수 3유형을 피험자 내 변인으로, 벡(Beck) 불안척도로 구분된 불안수준을 피험자 간 변인으로 혼합반복측정 설계를 적용하여 피험자 반응시간에 대해 분석한 결과, 정서유형과 자극의 종류 그리고 부정어휘 횟수에 대한 주효과를 확인하였으며, 불안수준 x 부정어 횟수에서 상호작용이 발견되었다. 긍정적 정서에 비해 부정적 정서에서, 비언어 자극보다는 언어 자극 환경에서 과제처리에 더 효율적이었지만, 부정어휘 변인에서는 그 횟수의 증가가 정상집단의 신속한 반응과 불안집단의 지연된 반응으로 분기되면서 부정어휘처리 반응시간의 지체로 나타났다. 또한 유입 정서유형 및 자극의 종류와 상관없이 불안수준은 과제처리 속도를 지연시키는 요인으로 확인되었다. 아울러 추후 연구를 위한 함의와 한계를 논의하였다.
