Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Novel distractors are prioritized for attentional selection. When distractors also convey emotional content, they divert attention from the primary task more than neutral stimuli do. In the present study, while participants were engaged in a central task, we examined the impact of peripheral distractors that varied for emotional content and novelty. Results showed that emotional interference on reaction times completely habituated with repetition and promptly recovered with novelty. The enhanced LPP for emotional pictures was attenuated by repetitions and, interestingly, stimulus novelty only affected emotional, but not neutral distractors, in both the RTs and LPP. Alpha-ERD was similarly reduced for repeated emotional and neutral distractors. Altogether, these findings suggest that the impact of peripheral distractors can be attenuated through a non-strategic learning mechanism mediated by mere stimulus repetition, which is fine-tuned to detect changes in emotional distractors only, supporting the hypothesis that novelty and emotion share the same motivational circuits.

Abstract/Results:
ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND
Several studies suggest that emotional cues activate cortico-limbic appetitive and defensive systems, which, in turn, enhance attention allocation. Attentional effects have been reported using a variety of visual and acoustic tasks, suggesting that, compared to neutral stimuli, emotional distractors draw more on attentional resources, leaving them less available for task processing.
AIMS
The primary aims were to investigate how novelty affects electrocortical responses to emotional distractors.
METHOD
Peripheral task-irrelevant emotional or neutral pictures were presented while participants performed an orientation task. In Experiment 1, stimuli were repeated several times throughout a habituation phase, while in Experiment 2, distractors were presented in separate blocks at high (80%) or low (20%) frequency of occurrence.
RESULTS
In both experiments, contextual factors (habituation, frequency of distractors occurrence) reduced or eliminated the effect of emotional interference induced by novel emotional (pleasant or unpleasant), compared to neutral stimuli. At the neural level (Late Positive Potential and alpha power) sustained emotional effects were observed despite the repetition or the high occurrence (vs. low) of emotional distractors.
CONCLUSIONS
The filtering mechanisms regulating emotional interference can be attenuated through a non-strategic learning mechanism mediated by (1) mere stimulus repetition and (2) the frequency of distractors occurrence. In both cases, however, neural measures of emotional processing (alpha-ERD) remained unaltered, suggesting that our perceptual system serves the mandatory adaptive function of identifying potential threats or rewards. This project might have important implications for the current society, where people are constantly bombarded by information that could ultimately cause psychological stress, a condition recently named technostress. Our data suggest that emotional information is continuously evaluated, even when 1) the task at hand does not require an explicit judgment on the visual stimuli and 2) there are no apparent behavioral markers that emotional distractors are affecting our performance.

Alpha-band oscillations and emotion: A review of studies on picture perception
Publication year: 2023

https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/psyp.14438
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Although alpha-band activity has long been a focus of psychophysiological research, its modulation by emotional value during picture perception has only recently been studied systematically. Here, we review these studies and report that the most consistent alpha oscillatory pattern indexing emotional processing is an enhanced desynchronization (ERD) over posterior sensors when viewing emotional compared with neutral pictures. This enhanced alpha ERD is not specific to unpleasant picture content, as previously proposed for other measures of affective response, but has also been observed for pleasant stimuli. Evidence suggests that this effect involves a desynchronization of the upper alpha band and of the lower beta frequencies (10-20 Hz). The emotional modulation of alpha ERD occurs even after massive stimulus repetition and when emotional cues serve as task-irrelevant distractors, consistent with the hypothesis that evaluative processes are mandatory in emotional picture processing. A similar enhanced ERD has been observed for other significant cues (e.g., conditioned aversive stimuli, or in anticipation of a potential threat), suggesting that it reflects cortical excitability associated with the engagement of the motivational systems.
