Chinese calligraphic handwriting (CCH) practice has proven to be beneficial to several aspects of psychological health and has been considered a complementary therapy for mental disorders. However, less is known about whether CCH practice benefits an individual's positive affect, a core component of affective well-being. Therefore, we examined this question in Chinese adolescents by combining correlational and experimental methods. In Study 1 (N = 1460), we found that high school students who practiced CCH had higher positive affect in their daily lives than those who did not practice CCH. In Study 2, a training experiment was conducted with college students, who were randomly assigned to receive either CCH training or no treatment. A six-day short-term CCH training led to a significant benefit in positive affect in the training group (N = 23) relative to the control group (N = 27). Together, our study provides converging evidence that CCH practice can promote positive affect in adolescents, further supporting the promotion of CCH in mental health practice.
中文书法练习已被证明对心理健康的多个方面有益，并被认为是精神障碍的一种补充疗法。然而，对于中文书法练习是否有益于个体的积极情绪（情感幸福感的核心组成部分），人们知之甚少。因此，我们通过结合相关和实验方法，在中国青少年中研究了这个问题。在研究 1（N=1460）中，我们发现练习中文书法的高中生在日常生活中比不练习中文书法的高中生具有更高的积极情绪。在研究 2 中，我们对大学生进行了一项训练实验，他们被随机分配接受中文书法训练或不接受治疗。为期六天的短期中文书法训练使训练组（N=23）相对于对照组（N=27）的积极情绪显著受益。总的来说，我们的研究提供了一致的证据，表明中文书法练习可以促进青少年的积极情绪，进一步支持在心理健康实践中推广中文书法。
