The emotional homunculus: ERP evidence for independent somatosensory responses during facial emotional processing.
Current models of face perception propose that initial visual processing is followed by activation of nonvisual somatosensory areas that contributes to emotion recognition. To test whether there is a pure and independent involvement of somatosensory cortex (SCx) during face processing over and above visual responses, we directly measured participants' somatosensory-evoked activity by tactually ...
متن کاملEmotional Facial Expression Processing of Emoticon: an ERP Study
This study examined the processing of emotional facial expression of emoticon compared to those of human. With pictures of emoticon faces and human faces expressing happy, angry, fearful, and neutral emotions along with pictures of houses and scrambled faces, 24 participants were required to do location-judgment about two gaps on contour of facial and control stimuli (non-attention) or were req...
متن کاملAn ERP Study of Responses to Emotional Facial Expressions: Morphing Effects on Early-Latency Valence Processing
Early-latency theories of emotional processing state that at least coarse monitoring of the emotional valence (a pleasure-displeasure continuum) of facial expressions should be both rapid and highly automated (LeDoux, 1995; Russell, 1980). Research has largely substantiated early-latency differential processing of emotional versus non-emotional facial expressions; however, the effect of valence...
متن کاملThe emotional control of action: ERP evidence.
It is known that unpleasant emotions can modulate the speed of involuntary movements, yet the effects of aversive stimulation on voluntary motor acts have not been systematically investigated. The effects of aversive stimulation on subsequent movement-related cortical activity were examined using a task invalving compatible and incompatible movements. Negative shifts in the timing of two motor ...
متن کاملFacial Action and Emotional Language: ERP Evidence that Blocking Facial Feedback Selectively Impairs Sentence Comprehension
There is a lively and theoretically important debate about whether, how, and when embodiment contributes to language comprehension. This study addressed these questions by testing how interference with facial action impacts the brain's real-time response to emotional language. Participants read sentences about positive and negative events (e.g., "She reached inside the pocket of her coat from l...
