Characteristics of Brain Wave Changes by Affective Pictures
نویسندگان
چکیده
Emotion status influences important areas in our daily lives. Many researchers reported successful emotion classifications. The aim of this study is to find out the neurophysiological characteristics of the brain waves while affective pictures elucidate emotion. Four healthy college students volunteered the stimulus experiment with the standard IAPS affective pictures. All brain waves showed active pattern over the frontal and parietal lobes. The significances of emotion change were found frontal lobe and central gyri area for Alpha band. Beta band also showed significance for emotion change around parietal lobe. This study revealed only Alpha and Beta waves changed significantly at limited location due to changed emotional status.

Event-related synchronization of delta and beta oscillations reflects developmental changes in the processing of affective pictures during adolescence.
Recent research has determined that affective pictures modulate event-related delta and beta oscillations in adults. However, it is unclear whether these brain oscillations reflect developmental changes in the processing of affective information during adolescence. EEG data were collected from 51 adolescents and 18 undergraduates as they viewed a total of 90 pictures. In the range of fast wave ...
متن کاملAffective picture modulation: valence, arousal, attention allocation and motivational significance.
The present study analyses the modulatory effects of affective pictures in the early posterior negativity (EPN), the late positive potential (LPP) and the human startle response on both the peripheral (eye blink EMG) and central neurophysiological levels (Probe P3), during passive affective pictures viewing. The affective pictures categories were balanced in terms of valence (pleasant; unpleasa...
متن کاملAffective ERP processing in a visual oddball task: arousal, valence, and gender.
OBJECTIVE To assess affective event-related brain potentials (ERPs) using visual pictures that were highly distinct on arousal level/valence category ratings and a response task. METHODS Images from the International Affective Pictures System (IAPS) were selected to obtain distinct affective arousal (low, high) and valence (negative, positive) rating levels. The pictures were used as target s...
متن کاملThe role of REM sleep in the processing of emotional memories: evidence from behavior and event-related potentials.
Emotional memories are vividly remembered for the long-term. Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep has been repeatedly proposed to support the superior retention of emotional memories. However, its exact contribution and, specifically, whether its effect is mainly on the consolidation of the contents or the processing of the affective component of emotional memories is not clear. Here, we investigated...
متن کاملThe selective processing of briefly presented affective pictures: an ERP analysis.
Recent event-related potential (ERP) studies revealed the selective processing of affective pictures. The present study explored whether the same phenomenon can be observed when pictures are presented only briefly. Toward this end, pleasant, neutral, and unpleasant pictures from the International Affective Pictures Series were presented for 120 ms while event related potentials were measured by...
