中文摘要: 良好的社会情绪能力是未来人才所必须具备的关键素质和能力, 而不良社会情绪能力将引发冲动性攻击和暴力侵犯行为、抑郁、焦虑等情绪障碍。脑是认知、情感和动机产生的生物基础,因此进行基于脑科学的儿童社会情绪能力发展水平评测和早期干预研究具有十分重要的意义。针对当前社会情绪能力评测和脑网络研究存在的不足,将脑网络作为有向的动态网络(其拓扑结构随时间变化),从非线性动力学和脑网络估计等全新视角度分析和量化脑网络的时空动力学模式、以及实时估计脑网络连接拓扑,并在此基础上分析脑网络连接拓扑的变化模式和规律。这些研究结果将揭示影响社会情绪能力的神经机制,并用于评测中国儿童社会情绪能力、以及研究如何改善和干预特殊个体(特别是社会情绪能力障碍者)社会情绪能力的方法和技术。这些研究成果将经过转化用于教育实践、以适应社会和谐发展的需要,同时为政策制定者和教育工作者制定教育政策和推动教育实践提供具有实证基础的依据。

英文摘要: Good social-emotional competence (SEC) is crucial for future talents, while persons with bad SEC will usually have emotional disorders (e.g., impulsive attack, violent behaviour, depression, and anxiousness). Brain provides the biological basis for our conginition, emotion, and intention. Therefore, SEC assessment and early intervention of Chinese children based on brain science is of significance. To remove the drawbacks of current SEC assessment methods and brain networks analysis, we consider the brain networks as directional dynamical ones with time-varying connection topology, and then quantify the spatiotemporal dynamics patterns from the viewpoint of nonlinear dynamics and estimate the connection topology of brain networks in real time. Based on those results concerning brain networks, we may thereby uncover the neural basis of SEC, and assess SEC of Chinese children, and intervene SEC of special groups (including in particular those with emotional disorders). All above research results will be translationally applied to educational practices and provide the evidence-based basis for educational policy-making.
