“…These studies suggest that educators within English-speaking cultures exhibit a greater tendency to use MSL and this seems to be a nature of language use underpinned by cultural factors. However, a recent quasi-experimental study in China has shed light on the potential for enhancing educators' use of MSL through effective language training programs (Wu et al, 2021). The results revealed that educators of experimental group who received MSL training used MSL more frequently during reading, daily conversations, and role-playing activities, and the corresponding children showed signi cantly improved performance in TOM tasks.…”

Mental state language (MSL) is a language used to describe individual internal states including one’s desire, emotion, perception and cognition. This study compared Chinese and Japanese preschool educators’ use of MSL in interactions with preschool children. Based on ecological systems of educator-child interactions, it analyzed 12 Chinese and 12 Japanese native preschool educators’ use of MSL in interactions with children considering the contextual factors (e.g. educator-child ratio and activity settings). The corpus analysis involved 8453 clauses from spontaneous 30-mintute spontaneous interactions during free play. The findings reveled that Japanese educators used a significantly higher proportion MSL compared to the Chinese educators. Among the four types of MSL, the Chinese educators uttered Cognition with higher frequency and more diverse cognitive terms, while the Japanese cohort used more Desire and Emotion with abundant emotional expressions. Child age is identified as a significant factor influencing educators’ use of MSL. The study discussed how Japanese and Chinese preschool educators provide distinct language experiences for children in different cultural-linguistic contexts, which has implications for worldwide preschool education in multicultural contexts.

With the development of technology, people expect real-time communication with computers. Wearable devices, such as those for monitoring physiological signals, have rapidly developed and are now being applied in college and university evaluation. Due to the non-standard and unscientific practices in teaching, teachers may experience psychological obstacles when evaluating students. To ensure successful evaluation, we must motivate teachers to correctly understand and actively participate in the evaluation process, thus facilitating communication between people and computers. Emotion recognition based on multi-physiological signals, such as ECG, pulse, electromyography, electrodermal, and respiratory signals, is an effective method for achieving this. This dissertation conducts in-depth research on the methods for emotion recognition based on multi-physiological signals. It explores feature extraction methods, feature selection, and fusion to provide objective assessments of physiological and psychological activity states, which are used as a basis for accurate emotional judgments.
