Functional imaging studies of emotional processing typically contain neutral control
conditions that serve to remove simple effects of visual perception, thus revealing the …

Attention exhibits characteristic neural signatures in brain regions that process sensory
signals. An important area of future research is to understand the nature of top-down signals …

Various forms of category-specificity have been described at both the cognitive and neural
levels, inviting the inference that different semantic domains are processed by distinct …

In this review, we consider affective cognition, responses to emotional stimuli occurring in
the context of cognitive evaluation. In particular, we discuss emotion categorization, biasing …

The visual appearance of others' bodies is a powerful source of information about the
people around us. This information is implicit in the stimulus and must be extracted and …

Rapid interruption of ongoing motor actions is crucial to respond to unexpected and
potentially threatening situations. Yet, it remains unclear how motor inhibition interacts with …

Visual emotional stimuli evoke enhanced activation in early visual cortex areas which may
help organisms to quickly detect biologically salient cues and initiate appropriate approach …

Vous n'en avez peut-être pas conscience, mais toute votre perception du monde, votre
rapport à ce qui vous entoure, aux autres et à vous-même sont déterminés par un petit …

A comprehensive systems overview of sensory and reward processing in the brain, this book
explores what reward processing can teach us about the senses and what sensory …

Selective attention is not a unitary construct, but is composed of several processes. Attention
selection may be guided by low-level stimulus properties, by the emotional value of the …
