In study 1, we developed a Chinese version of Implicit Positive and Negative Affect Test (IPANAT). The final test involves two dimensions—implicit positive affect and implicit negative affect, including 36 items, and having a good reliability and validity. In study 2, all participants underwent negative mood induction, after which they were divided into three groups and required to perform a facial manipulation task: "Smile group" participants had a chopstick horizontally between the teeth; "Non-smile group" participants pouted and held a chopstick in their lips; "Control group" participants had no chopstick. Analysis of both scores and reaction time in IPANAT showed that: Non-smile group had a better recovery from implicit negative affect, compared with smile and control groups. The findings highlight the importance of facial expressions in implicit emotion regulation, and broaden the "appropriateness hypothesis" of embodying emotion regulation.%研究一编制内隐积极消极情绪测验(IPANAT)为中文版.测验包括内隐积极情绪和内隐消极情绪两维度,共36个项目,信效度良好.研究二,诱发被试消极情绪后,对其分三组进行表情操控:微笑组,牙齿横咬筷子;不笑组,嘴唇竖含筷子;对照组,不使用筷子.IPANAT得分及反应时分析表明:不笑组,相比微笑组与对照组,内隐消极情绪恢复得更多.这表明面部表情对内隐情绪调节存在影响,并拓展了具身情绪调节的"匹配假说".
