“…According to the first finding of the current study, negative affect significantly and negatively predicts emotional regulation strategies of individuals. As the relevant literature is reviewed, it is seen that there are studies that have reported findings similar to this finding of the current study (Brook et al, 2013;Casey et al, 2013;Chiu et al, 2020;Fredrickson et al, 2003;Garofalo et al, 2020;Tugade & Fredrickson, 2004;Vanderlind et al, 2020;Vitale et al, 2018;Yoon & Rottenberg, 2020;Quoidbach et al, 2010). The reason for this finding can be explained as follows: Negative emotional experiences can be an obstacle to the use of effective and adaptive emotional regulation strategies.…”

“…At the same time, we should not ignore the positive emotions. Positive emotional experience can promote the effective emotional control of individuals, experience positive emotions such as gratitude, interest and love; after an emergency, it can help resilient individuals fight depression (Vanderlind et al 2020 ). In order to prevent the pandemic from escalating, universities are postponed to start school; moreover, university and college students must reduce their travels, which prevents them from studying and participating in social activities and may affect their learning progress and their mood.…”

Objectives To understand the status of positive affect (PA) and negative affect (NA) on university and college students, and to explore the determinants during the COVID-19 outbreak. Methods Our data were from network-based survey, and 17,876 participants completed the questionnaire. t test, one-way ANOVA and multiple linear regression model were performed using PANAS (Positive and Negative Affect Schedule) score as the dependent variable. Results Of 17,876 participants, the mean score of PA was 25.5 ± 7.3, while NA was 19.1 ± 7.1. Multiple linear regression models showed that there are some common determinants of PA and NA, such as education, health literacy on communicable diseases, satisfaction with measures for epidemic prevention and control, risk of infection, impact of the outbreak on daily life, sleep duration and frequency of hand washing in the past 2 weeks. Besides, whether the student is a medical major and whether outing in the past 2 weeks were specific determinants of PA, and frequency of masks wearing was specific determinant of NA. Conclusions The outbreak of COVID-19 is detrimental to university and college students' affect. During the outbreak response, we should strengthen the guidance and regulation for negative affect and pay attention to improving the positive affect of university and college students.

“…The results also showed that MDD patients reacted faster to happy faces than angry faces in the subliminal control goal priming condition, but not in the subliminal neutral priming condition. Depressed patients tend to have reduced attention to positive stimuli and difficulties with the regulation of positive emotions (Vanderlind et al, 2020). As evidenced by data on eye gaze, depressed participants may lack attentional bias to positive information when asked to watch positive, dysphoric, aversive, and neutral words (Ellis et al, 2011).…”

The Effects of Subliminal Goal Priming on Emotional Response Inhibition in Cases of Major Depression

Previous studies have provided evidence that automatic emotion regulation (AER), which is primed by control goals, can change emotion trajectory unconsciously. However, the cognitive mechanism and associated changes in depression remain unclear. The current study aimed to examine whether subliminal goal priming could change the emotional response inhibition among patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and their healthy controls. A group of patients with depression and a healthy control group were both primed subliminally by playing control goal related or neutral words for 20 ms each; afterward, they judged the gender of happy or angry faces in an emotional Go/No-Go task. A group of depressed patients and a healthy control group both were both primed subliminally with control goal-related words (20 ms) or neutral words (20 ms), and they judged the gender of happy or angry faces in an emotional Go/No-Go task. Among patients with depression, there were fewer false alarms of the No-Go response to emotional stimulus after priming with control goal rather than neutral words. Meanwhile, patients with MDD in the subliminal regulation goal priming condition reacted faster to happy rather than angry faces; no significant difference was found in the subliminal neutral priming condition. These findings suggest the malleability of inhibitory control in depression using subliminal priming goals.
