A growing body of literature investigating the neural correlates of emotion word processing
has emerged in recent years. Written words have been shown to represent a suitable means …

Emotional pictures guide selective visual attention. A series of event-related brain potential
(ERP) studies is reviewed demonstrating the consistent and robust modulation of specific …

Visual attention can be voluntarily directed toward stimuli and is attracted by stimuli that are
emotionally significant. The present study explored the case when both processes coincide …

Recent behavioral and neuroimaging studies demonstrate that labeling one's emotional
experiences and perceptions alters those states. Here, we used a comprehensive meta …

The influence of the emotional attributes of a visual scene on early perception processes
remains a key question in contemporary affective neurosciences. The International Affective …

Increasing evidence supports the existence of distinct neural systems that subserve two
dimensions of affect—arousal and valence. Ten adult participants underwent functional …

In adults, emotional (eg, both unpleasant and pleasant) compared to neutral pictures elicit
an increase in the early posterior negativity (EPN) and the late positive potential (LPP); …

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 …

Emotion-regulation difficulties have been identified as one of the core components in Non-
suicidal self-injury (NSSI), a behaviour often beginning in adolescence. This pilot study …
