The Impact of Embodied Emotion on Memory
Zulihumaer Wumaier
Abstract: The theory of embodied emotion supported by a wide range of theoretical hypotheses and research evidence, believes that the process of expression, perception, processing, and understanding of emotion is closely related to the body. In other words, the anatomy of the body, the way the body moves, the feelings and movements of the body have an important influence on individual emotion processing. Emotional memory has always been a significant part of the research in the field of memory as memory itself contains many emotional information. In addition, as important branches of memory research, implicit memory and recognition memory have also been paid more and more attention by researchers. The link between the different types of memory and embodied emotion has become an essential part of research. In this paper, typical embodied emotion and memory theories are combed. Meanwhile, the usage of the embodied emotion paradigm is also summarized to understand the effects of embodied emotion on memory.
