Emotion understanding refers to the ability to recognize, comprehend and infer emotions, which is crucial to the development of social competence and mental health in children with hearing impairment. Researches on understanding emotions in hearing impaired children are introduced and reviewed in this article based on three aspects: recognizing emotion, understanding the cause of emotion, and understanding display rules of emotion. Plausible interpretations are analyzed, and study issues needed to be explored further in the future researches are put forward.

Keywords: Emotion understanding, recognizing emotion, understanding the cause of emotion, understanding display rules of emotion
