“…In addition, the perception of rhyme does not seem to be influenced by relevant experiences: poetry is the spoken form of music songs. Although subjects who have been trained in music for years can process rhyme in Chinese poetry more quickly (Zhang et al, 2020), pupils in primary schools have acquired rhythm information on a Chinese poem (e.g., coherent repetition, stress pattern) implicitly (Li et al, 2009). Moreover, rhyming and regular metered poetry can promote the esthetic appreciation of Chinese poetry (Gao and Guo, 2018).…”

Painting, music, literature, and other art forms embody the essence of human wisdom and induce esthetic experience, among which poetry is inherently creative, because it contains a wealth of symbols, imageries, insights, and so forth. The appreciation and learning of Chinese poetry is an important part of the curriculum in secondary schools. However, studies have mainly focused on textual characters of poetry, with little literature focusing on esthetic appreciation and in-depth learning of poetry. In this vein, we ask whether emotional designs will promote the appreciation and learning of Chinese poetry. To answer this question, we explored the influence of the combination of external emotion induction (positive and neutral movie clips) and internal colorful design (chromatic and achromatic) on esthetic preference and learning of poetry. One hundred and sixty-six participants (14–15 years old) were randomly assigned to one of four conditions created by two factors (external emotion induction and internal colorful design). The results showed that the combination of external emotion induction and internal colorful design promoted positive emotions, retention, and transfer performances of learners. Furthermore, perceived difficulty of learners decreased significantly when external emotional induction and internal colorful design were both positive. Consequently, these findings indicated that emotional designs in multimedia facilitated the learning performance of middle school students in Chinese poetry, and supported the cognitive-affective theory of learning with media. This research was a preliminary exploration of emotional design in humanities.

“…Third, we observed a strong positive correlation between self-relevance and arousal, the higher the level of self-relevance was, the higher the arousal level. Because self-relevant information was more easily captured and individuals were more sensitive to self-relevant stimuli ( 47 ), the depression group showed higher arousal to negative words than positive words.…”

IntroductionEmotional words are often used as stimulus material to explore the cognitive and emotional characteristics of individuals with depressive disorder, while normal individuals mostly rate the scores of affective words. Given that individuals with depressive disorder exhibit a negative cognitive bias, it is possible that their depressive state could influence the ratings of affective words. To enhance the validity of the stimulus material, we specifically recruited patients with depression to provide these ratings.MethodsThis study provided subjective ratings for 501 Chinese affective norms, incorporating 167 negative words selected from depressive disorder patients’ Sino Weibo blogs, and 167 neutral words and 167 positive words selected from the Chinese Affective Word System. The norms are based on the assessments made by 91 patients with depressive disorder and 92 normal individuals, by using the paper-and-pencil quiz on a 9-point scale.ResultsRegardless of the group, the results show high reliability and validity. We identified group differences in three dimensions: valence, arousal, and self-relevance: the depression group rated negative words higher, but positive and neutral words lower than the normal control group.ConclusionThe emotional perception affected the individual’s perception of words, to some extent, this database expanded the ratings and provided a reference for exploring norms for individuals with different emotional states.

“…In contrast to these conclusions, another recent study explored the Chinese population structure with whole-genome sequencing and Asian screening array and found that the Han Chinese could be classified into four subgroups: northern Han, central Han, southern Han, and Lingnan Han (Cong et al 2022 ). Moreover, most scholars believed that the Han Chinese could be divided into the south and the north in terms of their physical characteristics (Liu 1991 ; Zhang 1988 ). It has not been proved, however, whether central Han exists at the phenotypic level as genetics have become more understood.…”

Phenotypic diversity, especially that of facial morphology, has not been fully investigated in the Han Chinese, which is the largest ethnic group in the world. In this study, we systematically analyzed a total of 14,838 facial traits representing 15 categories with both a large-scale three-dimensional (3D) manual landmarking database and computer-aided facial segmented phenotyping in 2379 Han Chinese individuals. Our results illustrate that homogeneous and heterogeneous facial morphological traits exist among Han Chinese populations across the three geographical regions: Zhengzhou, Taizhou, and Nanning. We identified 1560 shared features from extracted phenotypes, which characterized well the basic facial morphology of the Han Chinese. In particular, heterogeneous phenotypes showing population structures corresponded to geographical subpopulations. The greatest facial variation among these geographical populations was the angle of glabella, left subalare, and right cheilion (p = 3.4 × 10−161). Interestingly, we found that Han Chinese populations could be classified into northern Han, central Han, and southern Han at the phenotypic level, and the facial morphological variation pattern of central Han Chinese was between the typical differentiation of northern and southern Han Chinese. This result was highly consistent with the results revealed by the genetic data. These findings provide new insights into the analysis of multidimensional phenotypes as well as a valuable resource for further facial phenotype-genotype association studies in Han Chinese and East Asian populations.
