Several cortical and subcortical brain areas have been reported to be sensitive to the
emotional content of subliminal stimuli. However, the timing of these activations remains …

The N170 is the most prominent electrophysiological signature of face processing. While
facial expressions reliably modulate the N170, there is considerable variance in N170 …

The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) plays a key role in the modulation of affective
processing. However, its specific role in the regulation of neurocognitive processes …

In this Handbook of the Psychology of Religion and Spirituality, with scores of authors
working independently, one cannot expect uniformity. The voices are unique and express …

Visual threat-related signals are not only processed via a cortical geniculo-striatal pathway
to the amygdala but also via a subcortical colliculo-pulvinar-amygdala pathway, which …

Visual processing is not instantaneous, but instead our conscious perception depends on
the integration of sensory input over time. In the case of Continuous Flash Suppression …

Previous studies have shown that complex visual stimuli, such as emotional facial
expressions, can influence brain activity independently of the observers' awareness. Little is …

In two experiments, we tested whether fearful facial expressions capture attention in an
awareness-independent fashion. In Experiment 1, participants searched for a visible neutral …

The rapid extraction of facial identity and emotional expressions is critical for adapted social
interactions. These biologically relevant abilities have been associated with early neural …

Difficulty with emotion perception is a core feature of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) that is
also associated with the broader autism phenotype. The current study explored the neural …
