The junior high school stage is a key stage as the transition from a child stage to a more mature one.It is a paradoxical and extremely complex stage of development.With the development of society,the mental health of middle school students has become one of the social foci,and the psychology of adolescents.The research of mechanism has already become a research hotspot.This study examines the characteristics of attentional bias of junior high school students and the impact of emotional priming on the attentional bias of junior high school students.In order to further explore the circumstances under which individual attention bias can be eliminated,and thus provide theoretical guidance for school mental health work,this study has examined junior high school students from 12 years old to 14 years old with no emotional disorder.Positive and negative emotional words,as well as positive and negative emotion pictures are used as experimental materials.This study uses the dot-probe paradigm and thesandwich masking procedure emotional priming to carry out experiment.The experimental design of the test aims to study the subject's attentional bias under the condition of no emotional start? Experiment,by using 3(positive emotion initiation group,negative emotion initiation group,control group)× 2(positive/neutral,negative/neutral)×2(consistent/inconsistent)studies the effect of emotional initiation on the attentional bias of junior high school students.Through this study,the author draws the following conclusions:1.Under the condition of no emotional priming,junior high school students show the attention bias of negative emotional words.Positive and negative emotional words and the detection of neutral emotional words have significant differences,which means that it is easier to assign attention resources to positive and negative emotional stimuli than neutral stimuli.And the subjects are more sensitive to negative emotional stimuli.2: Under the condition of negative emotion initiation,junior high school students have significant differences in the detection response of emotional words and the detection of neutral emotional words,which means that it is easier to assign attention resources to positive and negative emotional stimuli than neutral stimuli.;positive emotions for negative emotional stimuli,but did not reach significant levels.3: Under the condition of positive emotional initiation,junior high school students have significant differences in the detection response of emotional words and the detection of neutral emotional words,which means that it is easier to assign attention resources to positive and negative emotional stimuli than neutral stimuli.;sensitive to positive emotional stimuli,but not reaching a significant level.Based on the conclusions of this study,recommendations are made from three levels:(1)School level: reduce the frequency of examinations;increase mental health education courses;increase class and school level group activities.(2)Family level: increase effective communication with children;learn to understand adolescent psychological characteristics and psychological knowledge;appropriate family travel or family activities.(3)Students' own level: learn to release pressure actively;participate in group activities.
