Emotional schematic faces were used as stimuli in the study. We recruited 17 undergraduates (9 male and 8 female). They were asked to finish a face-in-the-crowd task twice, and a clip of Beijing Opera was inserted between two experiments. The results showed that a significant change was found in subjects’ reaction time of searching task after the opera; and the before-after change altered between different emotion stimuli. We can therefore infer that the Peking Opera with high valence and high arousal modulate the processing of emotional stimuli and cognition. Such effect was found only in the reaction of positive stimuli, including pictures with positive background and those as targets.
