PROMOTING EFFECT OF MENTAL REGULATION INDUCED BY POSITIVE EMOTION ON VOCAL MUSIC EDUCATION
Abstract
Vocal music is any of the genres for solo voice and voices in combination, with or without instrumental accompaniment. The evaluation of teaching performance is helpful to improving the vocal music education. This paper mainly explores the effect of mental regulation, which is induced by positive emotion, on vocal music education. First, a curriculum model of positive emotion induction was established after quantifying and qualifying the emotion induction process. The model integrates human emotion with the breathing state during learning. Then, the model was applied to experiments on students from three colleges and universities, some of whom major in vocal music. The subjects were tested under four conditions, and evaluated by 12 indices on RStudio-1.0.44, SPSS 22.0 and E-Prime2.0. The results show that vocal music education is positively related to mental regulation; the positive emotion of the subjects receiving positive emotion induction was significantly improved through the experiments under all four conditions, indicating the effectiveness of our model; positive emotion is beneficial to the learning of vocal music. The research findings provide theoretical support for applying emotional induction in music education and mental health education.
