In the digital era, online activities, especially online communications, have remarkably changed people’s lives. Considering this, the researcher focused on the internet words and emoji expression’s influences on emotional intensity. This study utilized quasi-experimental methods to examine 80 subjects who had the experience of online chatting, by 2×2 two factors and four groups between-subjects design. One factor was the types of induced emotion as positive and negative emotions. The other factor was the types of expression as internet emoji and internet words expression. Four groups of samples’ emotion were induced. Then, participants expressed their emotion and completed the questionnaire with questions of emotional intensity, physical sex, and expression preference. The results of the study indicated that under the positive emotion condition, the emoji expression group had a significantly higher emotional intensity than that of the internet words expression group. However, under the negative emotion condition, emotional intensities between internet words and emoji were not significantly different. Second, under both the negative and positive emotion, the emotional intensities between males and females were not significantly different. Lastly, participants reported a preference for using words expression when they were in negative emotion. In conclusion, the utilization of internet words and emoji highly probably influenced some parts of human emotion. Particularly, using emoji might enhance positive emotion. However, the dynamic emotional processes can be further explored. |
