high temporal and spatial precision. Although fMRI has helped translate insights about the …

ABSTRACT Background: Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are often associated with
stress and anxiety-related disorders in adulthood, and learning and memory deficits have …

Fear generalization-the tendency to interpret ambiguous stimuli as threatening due to
perceptual similarity to a learned threat–is an adaptive process. Overgeneralization …

The human brain's ability to quickly detect dangerous stimuli is crucial in selecting
appropriate responses to possible threats. Trait anxiety has been suggested to moderate …

There is an ongoing debate on how different components of the event‐related potential
(ERP) to threat‐related facial expressions are modulated by attentional conditions and …
