When we want to know the bad news
Humans have a strong desire for information. Recent theories claimed, however, that this is different for "bad news". This exploratory study tested whether participants actively seek information about the intensity of biologically relevant, unavoidable heat pain stimuli. Participants played a series of coin-flip lotteries. Each side of a virtual coin was associated with one of two pain intensities. The range of pain intensities included no pain, …
Individual differences in emotion regulation
Individual differences in emotion regulation (ER) are assumed to play an important role in resilience and mental health. In a standardized laboratory setting, we investigated how the individual tendency to select specific ER strategies (reappraisal vs. distraction ) and the capacity to implement these strategies are related (a) to each other and (b) to trait markers of mental health in a nonclinical sample. For 159 participants, individual regula…
Multivariate pattern analysis of event-related potentials predicts the subjective relevance of everyday objects
Successful emotion regulation is predicted by amygdala activity and aspects of personality
The experience of emotions and their cognitive control are based upon neural responses in prefrontal and subcortical regions and could be affected by personality and temperamental traits. Previous studies established an association between activity in reappraisal-related brain regions (e.g., inferior frontal gyrus and amygdala) and emotion regulation success. Given these relationships, we aimed to further elucidate how individual differences in e…
Emotional entrainment, national symbols, and identification
Some theories suggest that collective emotions, in particular emotional entrainment as the feeling of affective attunement with others during rituals, can increase the identification with a social group. Furthermore, emotional entrainment is supposed to emotionally 'charge' group symbols that are part of ritual practices and influence group-related attitudes and solidarity even beyond the ritual context. This article tests these assumptions in a …
