Table 1 The scores of different emotional valences before and after emotion induction in Experiment 1a (M ± SD)

	Before emotional induction	After emotional induction
	Before emotional induction	Positive emotion	Neutral emotion	Negative emotion
Positive emotion	1.62 ± 1.18	3.31 ± 0.95	0.23 ± 0.47	-
Neutral emotion	3.96 ± 0.87	3.46 ± 1.65	3.73 ± 1.20	-
Negative emotion	0.29 ± 0.74	0.04 ± 0.20	0.02 ± 0.10	3.85 ± 0.69

Table 2 The scores of different emotional valences before and after emotion induction in Experiment 1b (M ± SD)

	Before emotion induction	After emotion induction
	Before emotion induction	Positive emotion	Neutral emotion	Negative emotion
Positive emotion	1.80 ± 0.63	3.28 ± 0.83	0.35 ± 0.52	-
Neutral emotion	3.52 ± 1.06	3.52 ± 1.06	3.70 ± 0.81	-
Negative emotion	0.45 ± 0.78	-	-	4.16 ± 0.76

Table 3 The recall accuracy of participants under different experimental conditions in Experiment 1a (M ± SD)

	Item type
	Rp+	Nrp+	Rp −	Nrp −
Positive emotion	0.77 ± 0.19	0.36 ± 0.28	0.24 ± 0.20	0.64 ± 0.27
Neutral emotion	0.87 ± 0.15	0.41 ± 0.29	0.40 ± 0.21	0.55 ± 0.29
Negative emotion	0.77 ± 0.23	0.51 ± 0.27	0.55 ± 0.22	0.54 ± 0.33

Table 4 The recall accuracy of participants under different experimental conditions in Experiment 1b (M ± SD)

	Item type
	Rp+	Nrp+	Rp −	Nrp −
Positive emotion	0.84 ± 0.13	0.36 ± 0.28	0.28 ± 0.18	0.66 ± 0.33
Neutral emotion	0.84 ± 0.16	0.46 ± 0.26	0.36 ± 0.20	0.48 ± 0.26
Negative emotion	0.74 ± 0.23	0.39 ± 0.35	0.45 ± 0.22	0.38 ± 0.26

Figure 1. Interactive retrieval task in Experiment 1a, participants as listeners showed recall accuracy for Rp− items and Nrp− items under different emotional valence conditions. ^*p < 0.05, ^**p < 0.01, ^***p < 0.001, the same as below.

Figure 2. Interactive retrieval task in experiment 1b, participants as listeners showed recall accuracy for Rp− items and Nrp− items under different emotional valence conditions.

Table 5 The recall accuracy of participants for items under different experimental conditions in Experiment 2 (M ± SD)

Emotional conditions	Item type
Emotional conditions	Rp+	Nrp+	Rp −	Nrp −
Low-motivation group	0.82 ± 0.16	0.35 ± 0.28	0.40 ± 0.23	0.65 ± 0.28
High-motivation group	0.79 ± 0.14	0.34 ± 0.28	0.28 ± 0.19	0.68 ± 0.27

Figure 3. In the interactive retrieval task in Experiment 2, participants as listeners showed recall accuracy for Rp− items and Nrp− items under under different positive emotional motivation dimension.
