Startle response and prepulse inhibition modulation by positive- and negative-induced affect.

The startle response, a set of reflex behaviours intended to prepare the organism to face a potentially threatening stimulus, can be modulated by several factors as, for example, changes in affective state, or previous presentation of a weak stimulus (a phenomenon termed Pre-Pulse Inhibition [PPI]). In this paper we analyse whether the induction of positive or negative affective states in the p...

Prepulse-elicited startle in prepulse inhibition.

BACKGROUND Prepulse inhibition (PPI) has become a major experimental paradigm in the study of psychiatric disorders. In this study, a potential confound in measurement and interpretation of PPI, namely startle reactions to so-called "nonstartling" prepulses, was examined. METHODS Prepulses of 80, 85, and 90 dB(A) were presented on their own or followed by a pulse of 115 dB(A) (lead interval: ...

Differentially organized top-down modulation of prepulse inhibition of startle.

Prepulse inhibition (PPI) of startle is the suppression of the startle reflex when a weaker sensory stimulus (the prepulse) shortly precedes the startling stimulus. PPI can be attentionally enhanced in both humans and laboratory animals. This study investigated whether the following three forebrain structures, which are critical for initial cortical processing of auditory signals, auditory fear...

Modulation of Prepulse Inhibition and Startle Reflex by Emotions: A Comparison between Young and Older Adults

This study examined whether or not the acoustic startle response and sensorimotor gating may be modulated by emotions differentially between young and older adults. Two groups of participants (mean age Young: 24 years old; Elderly: 63.6 years old) were presented with three types of auditory stimuli (Startle alone, High or Low frequency Prepulse) while viewing pleasant, neutral, or unpleasant im...

Startle modulation in autism: positive affective stimuli enhance startle response.

Behavioral evidence suggests that emotion processing deficits in individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) may occur at the level of basic (early, rapid, automatic) affective processes. Consistently, neurological evidence indicates that key brain areas associated with basic affective processing are atypical in ASD. The current study sought to better specify these deficits by comparing di...
