Insular Cortex Response to Static Visual Sexual Stimuli Journal of Psychophysiology (IF 0.9) Pub Date : 2022-04-01 Mathieu Brideau-Duquette,Olivier Boucher,Julie Tremblay,Manon Robert,Alain Bouthillier,Franco Lepore,Dang Khoa Nguyen
Abstract. According to previous research, the insula is important for processing salient and emotional stimuli, but its precise role remains elusive. By combining high spatial and temporal resolution, intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG) might contribute to filling this gap. Four drug-resistant epileptic patients with intracranial electrodes in the insula were instructed to watch and rate pictures

Test-Retest Reliability of Event-Related Potentials Across Three Tasks Journal of Psychophysiology (IF 0.9) Pub Date : 2022-04-01 Simon Morand-Beaulieu,Marie-Ange Perrault,Marc E. Lavoie
Abstract. Event-related potentials (ERPs) constitute a useful and cost-effective method to assess the neural underpinnings of multiple cognitive processes. ERPs have been used to track changes in cognitive processes in longitudinal and clinical studies. However, few studies have assessed their test-retest reliability (i.e., their consistency across time). Therefore, in the current study, we aimed to

Self-Reported Emotion Regulation Is Associated With Response to Test of Cardiac Vagal Function Journal of Psychophysiology (IF 0.9) Pub Date : 2022-04-01 Can Nakkas,Maria Bösch,Roberto LaMarca,Thomas Wyss,Hubert Annen,Serge Brand
Abstract. Parasympathetic function and emotional self-regulation (ESR) share neuroanatomic structures. Based on Porges’ Polyvagal Theory and the Neurovisceral Integration Model (NIM), we compared vagally mediated heart-rate variability (vmHRV) with psychometrically assessed ESR. We hypothesized that vmHRV and ESR would be associated during rest, a vagal function test, and recovery from that test. A

Functional Significance of Individual Differences in P3 Network Spatial Configuration Journal of Psychophysiology (IF 0.9) Pub Date : 2022-02-24 Adam John Privitera,Akaysha C. Tang
Abstract. The amplitude and latency of the P3 component in the electroencephalogram (EEG) event-related potentials (ERPs) are among the most extensively used markers for individual differences in normal and abnormal brain functions. In contrast, individual variations in spatial topography of the temporally-defined P3 component are relatively under-explored. Development in EEG-based source imaging opened

Abstract. A deficit in context processing may underlie theory of mind (ToM) difficulties in schizophrenia, although few studies to date have explored the impact of contextual processing on ToM performances within the same task. We used electroencephalography to investigate the production of intentional inferences from highly versus weakly structured sentences in healthy participants with schizotypal

Physiological Responses to Narrative Anger Recall and Correlates to Anger, Forgiveness, and Rumination Journal of Psychophysiology (IF 0.9) Pub Date : 2022-02-24 Emily Dalrymple Whinery,Aya Musleh,Emily A. Brown,Zachary Alford,Joe C. Anigbogu,Lauren Ellingwood,Marc-Anthony Espinoza,Greg Hawkins,Kaisa Kammer,Kevin Krause,Lisa E. Olson
Abstract. Narrative recall, or describing an event from one’s past, is a common method to study anger in the laboratory. However, most research using this method has not included a neutral speaking control, and therefore the physiological response attributable to emotion versus the act of speech is unknown. We evaluated heart rate, blood pressure, skin conductance level, heart rate variability, and

Under Which Circumstances Does Academic Workload Lead to Stress? Journal of Psychophysiology (IF 0.9) Pub Date : 2022-02-03 Susanne Koudela-Hamila,Philip S. Santangelo,Ulrich W. Ebner-Priemer,Wolff Schlotz
Abstract. Academic stress is associated with a wide range of adverse outcomes, including detrimental effects on mental health, achievement, and well-being. Numerous studies have shown an association between the cortisol awakening response (CAR) and various health and risk factors. Some studies revealed a protective function of the CAR as a stress buffer preventing the stress system from overshooting

The Influence of Slow-Paced Breathing on Executive Function Journal of Psychophysiology (IF 0.9) Pub Date : 2022-01-01 S. Laborde,M. S. Allen,U. Borges,T. J. Hosang,P. Furley,E. Mosley,F. Dosseville
Abstract. The aim of this experiment was to test the immediate effects of slow-paced breathing on executive function. Slow-paced breathing is suggested to increase cardiac vagal activity, and the neurovisceral integration model predicts that higher cardiac vagal activity leads to better executive functioning. In total, 78 participants (41 men, 37 women; Mage = 23.22 years) took part in two counterbalanced

A Multi-Method Approach to Understand Parent Behaviors During Child Acute Pain Journal of Psychophysiology (IF 0.9) Pub Date : 2022-01-01 Kaytlin L. Constantin,Rachel L. Moline,Lindsay Labonte,C. Meghan McMurtry
Abstract. Parent behaviors strongly predict child responses to acute pain; less studied are the factors shaping parent behaviors. Heart rate variability (HRV) is considered a physiological correlate of emotional responding. Resting or “trait” HRV is indicative of the capacity for emotion regulation, while momentary changes or “state” HRV is reflective of current emotion regulatory efforts. This study

Somatosensory Deviance Detection ERPs and Their Relationship to Analogous Auditory ERPs and Interoceptive Accuracy Journal of Psychophysiology (IF 0.9) Pub Date : 2021-08-25 Elina S. Kangas,Elisa Vuoriainen,Xueqiao Li,Pessi Lyyra,Piia Astikainen
Abstract. Automatic deviance detection has been widely explored in terms of mismatch responses (mismatch negativity or mismatch response) and P3a components of event-related potentials (ERPs) under a predictive coding framework; however, the somatosensory mismatch response has been investigated less often regarding the different types of changes than its auditory counterpart. It is not known whether

A Preliminary Investigation of ERP Components of Attentional Bias in Anxious Adults using Temporospatial Principal Component Analysis. Journal of Psychophysiology (IF 0.9) Pub Date : 2021-02-23 Resh S Gupta,Autumn Kujawa,David R Vago
Threat-related attention bias is thought to contribute to the development and maintenance of anxiety disorders. Dot-probe studies using event-related potentials (ERPs) have indicated that several early ERP components are modulated by threatening and emotional stimuli in anxious populations, suggesting enhanced allocation of attention to threat and emotion at earlier stages of processing. However, ERP

Pupil Constrictions and Their Associations With Increased Negative Affect During Responses to Recalled Memories of Interpersonal Stress Journal of Psychophysiology (IF 0.9) Pub Date : 2020-11-16 Sachiyo Ozawa,Hiromasa Yoshimoto,Kazuo Okanoya,Kazuo Hiraki
Abstract. Pupil diameter change is indicative of emotional processing. Most previous findings regarding pupillary response and emotion have reported that the pupil enlarges in response to the presentation of emotional perceptual stimuli (e.g., visual images) within several seconds. It is considered that such stimuli activate the sympathetic nervous system, leading to pupil dilation. In order to examine

Abstract. Traditionally, most event related potential (ERP) studies of memory retrieval have been reported during item-recognition tasks. Those studies lead to two well-known ERP memory components termed FN400 (familiarity) and LPC (recollection). Nevertheless, some critics have raised concerns regarding the actual meaning of that activity since it emerges as the result of contrasting two different
