纵览已有的关于情绪感染的文献后发现，就情绪感染这一概念主要存在两种分歧——一种认为情绪感染是自动化的、无意识的过程（原始性情绪感染），一种认为情绪感染是一个需要意识参与的过程（意识性情绪感染）。究其原因，是因为研究者们没有区分“低级情绪信息”和“高级情绪信息”及其在传递机制上的差异性，最终使得情绪感染这一概念不断扩大化而不知所指，由于情绪感染概念上的分歧导致其发生机制上也存在同样的分歧。为厘清情绪感染的概念及其发生机制，使用推本溯源的方法从“感染”的词源上来探究情绪感染的概念问题，明确了只有低级情绪信息才可以通过情绪感染传递，情绪感染是一个自动化、无意识的情绪传递过程。进而，在情绪感染的概念和已有文献资料的基础上论证了情绪感染的机制问题，情绪感染是一个“察觉——[模仿——反馈（激活镜像神经系统）]——情绪”的过程。

After studying the literature available about emotional contagion, we found that there existed two different perspectives in the concept of emotional contagion： One is primitive emotional contagion, which considers the emotional contagion as an automatic and unconscious process, and the other is conscious emotional contagion, which sees the emotional contagion as a consciousness-involved process. The reasons of the differences suggested researchers could not distinguish between types of emotional information, i.e. low-level emotional information and high-level emotional information, and between differences in emotional transference mechanism for the both. As a result, the meanings of emotional contagion expanded more and more, and could not indicate what the exact concept was. Disagreements on the concept of emotional contagion brought about a distinction between views of its mechanism. In this article we traced the origin of ＂contagion＂ in order to deduce what the emotional contagion is, and made clear what kind of emotional information could be transmitted by emotional contagion. We suggested that only low-level emotional information could be transferred by emotional contagion, and emotional contagion was an automatic, nonconscious process. At the end of the paper, the mechanism of emotional contagion was discussed on the base of above-defined concept and the literature available. The mechanism of emotional contagion： Perception--~（Mimicry---~Feedback （eliciting mirror neurons））-＊Emotion.
