中文摘要：

为了求证阈下情绪引起的认知偏向是否随增龄而变化及表现如何，选取5，6，7岁儿童、青年人、老年人共183名被试完成阈下情绪启动实验，结果发现：儿童和成年人在闽下呈现哭表情图片条件下，表现出相反的启动效应。成年人表现出情绪一致性效应，而儿童表现出情绪反转效应。笑表情图片在各年龄段被试中均未引起显著的判断偏向。该结果说明儿童处理阈下情绪的隐性心理机制是维持快乐，成人则是预警危险。

This article was to explore the developmental relationship between emotion and cognition through a subliminal affective priming experiment with 183 subjects including children aged 5 to 7 years, the youth and the adults. It turned out children judged the target as cry after the prime of cry face photo even less than after the neutral prime, Whereas, significant emotion-congruent effect was found in adults, they judged the target as cry after the cry prime more than after the neutral prime. No significant affeetive priming effect was found in any group when primed by the smiling face photo. This result proved the implicit mechanism of child to deal with subliminal affective information is keeping happy while the adult is early warning.
