Children's Shyness and Early Stages of Emotional Face Processing
Biol Psychol. 2024 Mar 7:108771. doi: 10.1016/j.biopsycho.2024.108771. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe ability to detect and recognize facial emotions emerges in childhood and is important for understanding social cues, but we know relatively little about how individual differences in temperament may influence early emotional face processing. We used a sample of 419 children (Mage = 10.57 years, SD = 1.75; 48% female; 77% White) to examine the relation between temperamental shyness and early stages of emotional face processing (assessed using the P100 and N170 event-related potentials) during different facial expressions...

In the anticipation of threat: Neural regulatory activity indicated by delta-beta correlation and its relation to anxiety
Biol Psychol. 2024 Mar 4;187:108769. doi: 10.1016/j.biopsycho.2024.108769. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe anticipation of oncoming threats is emotionally challenging and related to anxiety. The current study aimed to investigate the neural regulatory processes during the anticipatory preparations in stressful situations in relation to trait anxiety, especially in an uncertainty-related stressful situation. To this end, we measured within-subjects delta-beta amplitude-amplitude correlation (AAC) and phase-amplitude coupling (PAC) with electroencephalography using a well-defined stress-inducing paradigm in 28 high-trait-a...

Neural substrates of marriage on self-parents processing and the association with a parents-oriented perspective shift in a collectivistic culture
This study sought to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying self-parents processing as well as their relationship with marriage. Seventy-eight premarital Korean participants were scanned in functional MRI while evaluating traits of the self and parents. Then, 21 of them returned after being married to engage in the identical task three years later. The precuneus and temporoparietal junction were identified to activate stronger for parents than self at both marital statuses. The dorsal anterior cingulate cortex, posterior cingulate cortex, parietal operculum, and caudate activated more for self than parents before mar...

Cortisol's Diurnal Rhythm Indexes the Neurobiological Impact of Child Adversity in Adolescence
This study was designed to determine how different social contexts, which place divergent demands on children, shape cortisol's diurnal rhythm. Participants include 120 adolescents (9-14 years), including 42 youth with substantiated child physical abuse. Up to 32 saliva samples were obtained in the laboratory, on days youth stayed home, and on school days. A 3-level hierarchical linear model examined cortisol within each day and extracted the diurnal rhythm at level 1; across days at level 2; and between-individual differences in cortisol and its rhythm at level 3. While cortisol's diurnal rhythm was flattened when youth w...

The impact of culture on Emotion Suppression: Insights from an Electrophysiological Study of Emotion Regulation in Japan
Biol Psychol. 2024 Feb 26:108767. doi: 10.1016/j.biopsycho.2024.108767. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPrior theory and evidence suggest that native East Asians tend to down-regulate their negative emotional arousal through expressive suppression, an emotion regulation technique focused on suppressing one's emotional experience. One proposed explanation for this choice and effectiveness of regulation strategy is rooted in their commitment to the cultural value of interdependence with others. However, prior work has not yet thoroughly supported this hypothesis using in vivo neural correlates of emotion regulation. Here, we u...

Exploring the role of working memory gate opening process in creativity: An ERP study using the reference-back paradigm
Biol Psychol. 2024 Feb 26:108765. doi: 10.1016/j.biopsycho.2024.108765. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWe investigated the relationship between the gate opening process of working memory and an individual's proficiency in divergent (DT) and convergent thinking (CT) using the reference-back paradigm. Event-related potentials and reaction times were measured across groups with varying DT (N = 40, 27.35 ± 5.05 years) and CT levels (N = 40, 27.88 ± 4.95 years). Based on the role of striatal dopamine in supporting cognitive flexibility, which facilitates DT, and considering the significance of phasic dopamine activity as the g...
