（a）经验和学习与（B）内在倾向对识别情绪信号的贡献很难调查，因为儿童几乎总是从出生起就暴露在复杂的情绪体验中。本研究旨在探讨非典型经验对幼儿情绪发展的影响。在实验1中，孩子们将面部表情与情绪情境相匹配。被忽视的孩子比控制或身体虐待的孩子更难辨别情绪表达。身体虐待的儿童表现出愤怒的面部表情的反应偏见。在实验2中，儿童评价面部表情的相似性。对照组的孩子认为离散的情绪是不同的，被忽视的孩子看到的情绪之间的区别较少，身体虐待的孩子表现出最大的情绪差异。这些结果表明，在一定程度上，儿童对世界的经验是不同的，他们对情绪信号的解释和理解也是如此。
The contributions to the recognition of emotional signals of (a) experience and learning versus (b) internal predispositions are difficult to investigate because children are virtually always exposed to complex emotional experiences from birth. The recognition of emotion among physically abused and physically neglected preschoolers was assessed in order to examine the effects of atypical experience on emotional development. In Experiment 1, children matched a facial expression to an emotional situation. Neglected children had more difficulty discriminating emotional expressions than did control or physically abused children. Physically abused children displayed a response bias for angry facial expressions. In Experiment 2, children rated the similarity of facial expressions. Control children viewed discrete emotions as dissimilar, neglected children saw fewer distinctions between emotions, and physically abused children showed the most variance across emotions. These results suggest that to the extent that children's experience with the world varies, so too will their interpretation and understanding of emotional signals.
