    "title": "An Embodied Cognition Approach to Studying EmotionalWords: The Impact of\nPositive Facial Experiences on Semantic Properties Judgment",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Embodied cognition is a theory that emphasizes the importance of sensorimotor experiences for cognition. Therefore,\nthe present study focused on how the facial expression manipulation influences the property judgments toward Chinese\nemotional words. 41 college students were divided into “biting the pen with smile” group and control group to rate the same 26\nChinese emotional words chosen from a Chinese Emotions Corpora (Cho, Chen, and Cheng, 2013). After having the instructed\nexpression, subjects evaluated several semantic dimensions of emotional words immediately. The findings show that the “biting\nthe pen with smile” group has higher rating values for dimension ‘valence’, ‘frequency’ and ‘continuance’ for the ‘disgust’\nwords, and the dimension ‘valence’ for the ‘angry’ words. The study found that positive facial expression indeed influenced\nthe semantic properties of negative words, not the positive emotional words. The results are useful for investigating how word\nmeaning is built in children and clinical applications.",
