当话语包含冲突的情感线索时，6岁的孩子从内容中判断情感，即使被指示从语言中判断情感（Morton & Trehub，2001）。两个实验研究了这种偏见的性质。在实验1中，启动语言逆转了6岁儿童对内容的正常偏向。在实验2中，6岁儿童被要求在不同的条件下听非母语。孩子们更有可能遵循反馈的指示，而不是单独提供的指示。描述内容和语言之间的冲突的儿童比没有描述这些冲突的儿童更有可能遵循指示。结果表明，6岁的孩子可以判断情绪的语言中存在的竞争内容，但往往保持专注于内容，因为他们代表的指示。
When utterances contain conflicting emotion cues, 6-year-olds judge emotion from content, even when instructed to judge emotion from paralanguage (Morton & Trehub, 2001). Two experiments examined the nature of this bias. In Experiment 1, priming paralanguage reversed 6-year-olds' normal bias to content. In Experiment 2, 6-year-olds were instructed to listen to paralanguage under various conditions. Children were more likely to follow instructions delivered with feedback than instructions delivered alone. Children who described conflicts between content and paralanguage were more likely to follow instructions than children who did not describe these conflicts. Results suggest that 6-year-olds can judge emotion from paralanguage in the presence of competing content but often remain focused on content because of the way they represent the instructions.
