Attentional modulation in neural responses to faces

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Adaptive social behavior requires perceiving and flexible processing of changing facial expressions that
convey different socio-affective meanings. Although a more conscious processing and effortful interpretation of some facial expressions, such as disgust, may be required, certain facial expressions, such as fear, may be processed in a rapid, more automatic, way. To advance in this issue, event-related potentials were used to investigate the effects of attention and emotion expression on face processing in the brain. The emotion facial expressions that were examined were the prototypical of different basic emotions (fear, disgust, happiness, surprise, anger and sadness). Stimuli consisted of a house and a face transparently superimposed. Participants were instructed to attend to either the face or the house, in different emotion expression conditions, in order to signal consecutive repetitions of the same person or the same house in separate blocks of trials. The emotional nature of the faces was not relevant to the task. Different effects of attention and different spatio-temporal patterns of brain electrical activity were observed for faces with distinct emotion facial expressions. Results showed that the processing of distinct emotion from faces is gated by attention allocation at different latencies and associated with different neural responses. We conclude that
different brain mechanisms underlie the perception of distinct basic emotion facial expressions.

Impacto da expressão facial na percepção de tempo: papel da valência e da activação
Publication year: 2010
Abstract/Results:
ABSTRACT:
The emotional nature of a facial expression seems to distort perception of its duration. In this paper we present a study that tests the hypothesis of this effect be moderated by the emotional dimensions (valence and arousal) by addressing its explanation in terms of processes that interfere with the functioning of an "internal clock", including activation and attentional processes. Using a temporal bisection task with durations of between 400 and 1600 ms, the results suggest a valence effect: the duration of the negative faces is overestimated in relation to positive faces. This effect was moderated by the intensity of emotional expressions (arousal), been clearly observed only in the low arousal condition. In high arousal condition positive and negative faces were identically estimated. The fact that this interaction is found only in short time windows, suggests to us, a concurrent interference in activation and attentional processes. This explanation is discussed in the article, taking into account their limitations.

Separable effects of stimulus duration and awareness on skin conductance responses to emotional facial expressions
Publication year: 2009
URL:
http://webs.psi.uminho.pt/appe/past/2010/files/PostersAPPE2010.pdf
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
A subcortical pathway was proposed for rapid threat detection. We investigated whether perception of neutral, happy and angry facial expressions are reflected in the skin conductance response (SCR) at different stimulus durations (12, 24, 35, 170, 2000 msec) and reported awareness levels (unawareness, face detection, emotion discrimination). Additionally, participants (N=17) reported subjective arousal. The SCR magnitude measure showed no differences across emotion type or awareness level. Importantly, it changed across duration, with an emotional (anger + happiness) vs. neutral contrast emerging only at 2000 msec. Conversely, differences in subjective arousal appeared as soon as participants reported emotion discrimination, independent of duration. We suggest the SCR is not a specific marker of unaware threat detection but is dependent on conscious processing.

Title:
Skin conductance responses evoked by emotional faces reflect separable stimulus duration and awareness effects
Publication year: 2010

http://fens2010.neurosciences.asso.fr/abstracts/R1/A023_2.html
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
It has been shown that faces displaying threat signals can be processed without awareness. This supports the existence of a subcortical pathway for rapid but coarse threat detection including the amygdala.
Here we study whether subliminal perception of faces showing neutral, happiness and anger expressions can elicit changes in the skin conductance response (SCR). Crucially, faces were presented at one of 5 durations (12, 24, 35, 170 and 2000 msec) to account for inter-subject variability in awareness thresholds, being immediately preceded and followed by two scrambled masks (forward + backward masking). In the end of each trial, participants (N=17) had to report the degree of awareness (unawareness of any content - faces and emotional features; face detection, or emotion discrimination), and to make arousal ratings (0 to 5) and valence categorizations (positive, negative or neutral).
The SCR magnitude measure showed no clear differences across emotion type or awareness level. A significant effect emerged only when contrasting emotion (anger + happiness) vs. neutral categories, but only when subjects reported emotion discrimination. No such effect was evident in the lower awareness levels. Importantly, the SCR differed across duration, with the emotion vs. neutral contrast showing significant differences only for the highest (2000 msec) duration. No significant differences were found for any of the shorter durations, not even when awareness was clearly reported (e. g. 165 msec). Conversely, differences in subjective arousal emerged as soon as subjects reported emotion discrimination, independent of duration (e. g. 24 msec).
Our data shows that duration explains modulations of the SCR better than awareness levels. This suggests that the SCR is not a specific measure for threat detection under unaware conditions but that it is dependent on conscious processing and higher cognitive functions.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND
The processing of emotions from facial expression is an automatic process every day. However, how different emotional expressions affect our performance and social behaviour remains poorly understood.
AIM
The aim of the study is to investigate how the process of different emotional expressions modulate the neural activity supporting attention dependent behavioural responses. Specifically, by defining the mechanisms through which emotional processes interfere with basic cognitive and behavioural functions, we aim to provide a novel insight to the brain basis for Social anxiety.
METHOD
In the current study, we examined the impact of emotional face stimuli (presented in the interval of the forewarned reaction time task) on the Contingent Negative Variation (CNV) and related brain activity. CNV refers to anticipation related slow cortical potential that is a signature of attention related cortical excitation. 15 healthy participants and 5 patients with social anxiety disorder took part in a combined neuroimaging (fMRI) simultaneous EEG study.
RESULTS
Contrary to our prediction, CNV amplitude increased significantly with presentation of both face and non-face stimuli during the delay period of the CNV task. Furthermore, there was a significant modulation of CNV amplitude by emotion type: CNV amplitude was greater for happy and angry compared to fear and disgust face stimuli. Correspondingly, neural activity within thalamus, supplemental motor area (SMA), dorsal anterior cingulate and orbitofrontal cortices was greater for happy and anger compared to fear and disgust CNV conditions. Activity within pons was attenuated for happy and anger conditions relative to fear and disgust. Negative face expressions (fear, disgust and anger) activated the amygdala providing a route for expression of social anxiety on preparatory attention.
CONCLUSION
Specific emotional expressions differentially affect CNV amplitude: specifically a difference is noted between the effects of approach emotions (anger, happiness) compared to withdrawal emotions (fear, disgust).

A externalização e o processamento de expressões faciais de emoção

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
The externalization consists in a spectrum of personality that encompasses anti-social behaviors, personality traits associated with disinhibited and aggressive behavior and the abuse of licit and illicit substances. The etiology of this disorder is still not consensual. In addition to other problems, this population shows difficulties in emotional regulation, namely through the interpretation and demonstration of emotions. Therefore, this research aimed to investigate whether there are differences in the processing of facial expressions of emotion between individuals with different levels of externalization, using behavioral measures (reaction times and percentage of correct responses) and electroencephalographic measures (analysis of event-related potentials). Regarding the latter, the waves P100 and N170 were studied, as well as 11 temporal windows of 50ms each, between 230ms and 780ms after stimulus onset. Participants were 54 students from the University of Aveiro, divided in groups of high, medium and low externalization, based on their score on the Externalizing Inventory. Participants performed an emotional categorization task that aimed to assess their ability to discriminate between faces displaying emotional expressions and neutral faces. The study included the basic emotions happiness, fear, anger, sadness, disgust and surprise. Behavioral results seem to point to difficulties in recognizing facial expressions of sadness compared with other emotions and neutral facial expressions. Regarding the results obtained for the P100 and N170, these point to the existence of differences in emotional processing at short latencies. At long latencies, some differences between the experimental groups to the emotions of fear and anger were also observed. For the emotion ‘fear’, there were differences between the processing of emotional faces and faces with neutral expression. Overall, it was observed that the right hemisphere showed larger amplitudes than the left. Given the reduced number of studies in the literature concerning the study of externalization and its effects on the processing of facial emotions, it will be important to conduct further research to explore these aspects. In particular it would be interesting to explore how facial processing of emotions occurs in facial stimuli whose emotional intensity is variable. However, the present study already contributes to a better understanding of the behavioral and psychophysiological aspects associated with the processing of emotional expressions in individuals with high externalization.

Esta linha de investigação baseia-se na teoria de que os sistemas neurocognitivos que intervêm no processamento de informação emocional poderão obedecer a regras de funcionamento dinâmicas e não lineares. Evidências prévias indicam que existem pontos de desequilíbrio durante a percepção de estímulos emocionais que representam um contínuo na transição entre diferentes categorias emocionais e que estes parecem ocorrer em momentos diferentes dependendo da ordem da apresentação dos estímulos. O presente estudo ocupa-se da descrição dos correlatos neurofisiológicos tradutores desta dinâmica de percepção emocional. Foram utilizados 6 contínuos de 13 fotogramas entre as expressões prototípicas de alegria e de tristeza e manipulada a sua ordem de apresentação. 18 participantes (6 mulheres) efetuaram uma tarefa de identificação emocional, enquanto foi registada a atividade EEG. Verificou-se uma modulação do potencial de longa latência N170 e das frequências de respostas acumuladas pelos fotogramas compatíveis com o processamento não linear da informação emocional.

Feature analysis for correlation studies of simultaneous EEG-Fmri sata: A proof of concept for neurofeedback approaches
Publication year: 2015

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
The identification and interpretation of facial expressions is an important feature of social cognition. This characteristic is often impaired in various neurodevelopmental disorders. Recent therapeutic approaches to intervene in social communication impairments include neurofeedback (NF). In this study, we present a NF real-time functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (rt-fMRI), combined with electroencephalography (EEG) to train social communication skills. In this sense, we defined the right Superior Temporal Sulcus as our target region-of-interest. To analyze the correlation between the fMRI regions of interest and the EEG data, we transposed the sources located at the nearest cortical location to the target region. We extracted a set of 75 features from EEG segments and performed a correlation analysis with the brain activations extracted from rt-fMRI in the right pSTS region. The finding of significant correlations of simultaneously measured signals in distinct modalities (EEG and fMRI) is promising. Future studies should address whether the observed correlation levels between local brain activity and scalp measures are sufficient to implement NF approaches.

Caricatured facial movements enhance perception of emotional facial expressions
Publication year: 2022

Abstract/Results: Although faces “in the wild” constantly undergo complicated movements, humans adeptly perceive facial identity and expression. Previous studies, focusing mainly on identity, used photographic caricature to show that distinctive form increases perceived dissimilarity. We tested whether distinctive facial movements showed similar effects, and we focussed on both perception of expression and identity. We caricatured the movements of an animated computer head, using physical motion metrics extracted from videos. We verified that these “ground truth” metrics showed the expected effects: Caricature increased physical dissimilarity between faces differing in expression and those differing in identity. Like the ground truth dissimilarity, participants’ dissimilarity perception was increased by caricature when faces differed in expression. We found these perceived dissimilarities to reflect the “representational geometry” of the ground truth. However, neither of these findings held for faces differing in identity. These findings replicated across two paradigms: pairwise ratings and multiarrangement. In a final study, motion caricature did not improve recognition memory for identity, whether manipulated at study or test. We report several forms of converging evidence for spatiotemporal caricature effects on dissimilarity perception of different expressions. However, more work needs to be done to discover what identity-specific movements can enhance face identification.
