Objective: Our study aims to examine the mediating role of prosocial moral reasoning, emotion regulation, and emotion lability in the relation between temperamental characteristics and prosocial behaviour. Methods: In a cross-sectional study, a sample of 202 students were recruited through random multistage sampling method. The participants were interviewed about their prosocial moral reasonin...

The main goal of this study was to investigate how automatic emotion regulation altered the hemispheric asymmetry of ERPs elicited by emotion processing. We examined the effect of individual differences in automatic emotion regulation on the late positive potential (LPP) when participants were viewing blocks of positive high arousal, positive low arousal, negative high arousal and negative low ...

Cognition and emotion interact in important ways to shape ongoing behaviors. In this study, we investigated the interaction between conflict-driven executive control adjustments and emotion during a face-word Stroop-like paradigm. Neutral and negative images were employed to manipulate emotion. We were particularly interested in contrasting two hypotheses of the impact of emotion on conflict ad...

The present study investigated perceived acceptability and suppression of negative emotion in participants with anxiety and mood disorders. Sixty participants with these disorders and 30 control participants watched an emotion-provoking film and completed self-report measures of their experience and regulation of emotions. The film elicited similar increases in negative emotion for clinical and...

BACKGROUND Persons suffering from schizophrenia have impaired perception of emotional expressions, but it is not clear whether this is part of a generalized deficit in cognitive function. AIM To test for existence of emotion-specific deficits by studying the effects of valence on recognition of facial emotional expressions. METHODS 24 male subjects suffering from chronic schizophrenia were ...

abstract background: according to emotion dysregulation model (emd), generalized anxiety disorder (gad) symptoms may be maintained by emotional hyperarousal, experience of intense emotion, poorer understanding of emotions, negative attitudes about emotions, and maladaptive emotion regulation and management. based on the emd, emotion regulation therapy (ert) is a mechanism-targeted intervention ...

background: a great deal of attention has been given to the study of learning disorders. hence, the aim of this research was to study the effect of emotion regulation training in decreasing emotion failures and self-injurious behaviors among students suffering from specific learning disorder. methods: this was an experimental study with the pre-test, post-test and a control group. research popu...

In general, emotion is known to enhance memory processes. However, the effect of emotion on associative memory and the underling neural mechanisms remains largely unexplored. In this study, we explored brain activation during an associative memory task that involved the encoding and retrieval of word and face pairs. The word and face pairs consisted of either negative or positive words with neu...

Research has shown that people with schizophrea report experiencing similar levels of emotion compared to people without schizophrenia when presented with evocative stimuli (Kring andMoran, 2008). However, people with schizophrenia also report experiencingmore negative emotion in response to putatively neutral or positive evocative stimuli (Cohen and Minor, 2008) and more trait negative emotion...

OBJECTIVES Retrospective studies suggest a link between PTSD and difficulty regulating negative emotions. This study investigated the relationship between PTSD symptoms and the ability to regulate negative emotions in real-time using a computerised task to assess emotion regulation. METHOD Trauma-exposed ambulance workers (N = 45) completed self-report measures of trauma exposure, PTSD sympto...
