Another Differentiated Look at Emotions
People with high emotional granularity (EG; the capacity to differentiate among discrete emotional states) tend to employ more effective emotion regulation strategies during negative affective states. Recent eye‐tracking evidence suggests that EG is associated with the frequency of revisits to negative emotional stimuli. The current study aimed to replicate this finding, however, using more complex, dynamic distractors to test whether avoidance o…
Comparison of Self-Reported and Performance-Based Emotional Granularity in Relation to Skin-Picking Behavior
Excessive skin-picking has been conceptualized as a maladaptive emotion regulation strategy. One potential contributor to emotion regulation difficulties is low emotional granularity (EG), defined as the ability to precisely differentiate between emotional states. To our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate whether EG for unpleasant feelings is associated with the severity of skin-picking behavior. A total of 143 individuals (mean ag…
Effects of open-label placebos and self-monitoring in skin-picking disorder
When used as a stand-alone-intervention, OLP treatment demonstrated only minimal effects beyond those achieved through self-monitoring
Placebo Effects on the Enjoyment of Physical Activity and Performance among Kindergarten Children
Studies with adults and school children have shown that placebos can enhance motivation and performance in physical activities. This study aimed to investigate whether similar effects are present in kindergarten-aged children. A total of 101 children (58 girls, 43 boys) aged 3 to 6 years were randomly assigned to one of two groups that either received a deceptive placebo (DP: “magic potion”) or a nondeceptive placebo (NDP: “water”) to enhance phy…
A differentiated look at emotions
The ability to distinguish between subtle differences among emotions of similar valence is labelled emotion differentiation (ED). Previous research has demonstrated that people high in ED are less likely to use disengagement regulation strategies (i.e. avoidance/distraction) during negative affective states.The present eye-tracking study examined associations between ED and visual attention/avoidance of affective stimuli. A total of 160 participa…
A brief measure of disgust propensity
In the context of large-scale surveys, pre-screening or longitudinal studies, researchers may be faced with the choice of using a brief measure of disgust propensity (DP: the general tendency to respond with the emotion of disgust to any given situation) or using no measure at all. The goal of the present study was to develop and validate such a short scale based on the Questionnaire for the Assessment of Disgust Propensity (QADP); Schienle et al…
Discriminative and Affective Processing of Touch
Skin-picking is a common behavior in the general population that generally serves emotion regulation (e.g., reduction of tension). However, recent research suggests it may also be associated with changes in tactile processing sensitivity. Along these lines, the present study examined whether the severity of skin-picking (SOSP) is related to discriminative and affective touch processing. A total of 160 participants (59 males, 101 females, mean age…
The association between the propensity to experience meaningful coincidence and brain anatomy in healthy females
When two events co-occur within a specific time interval, some people experience 'meaningful coincidence'. This may be a consequence of the mind searching for causal structure in reality. In cases of negative events, it may be a coping strategy for managing stress. The present voxel-based morphometry (VBM) study investigated neural correlates of the propensity to experience meaningful coincidence (PEMC). VBM data from 115 females (mean age: 26 ye…
