The implicit control of emotion processing was investigated by varying encoding instructions for both negative and neutral pictures while measuring psychophysiological responses. Participants made comparative judgments about consecutive pictures for blocks of neutral or negative content. The highly specified judgment task was designed to minimize variance in the implementation of implicit contr...

Presenting images in transparent overlay probably introduces ambiguity in figure-ground perception. We are interested in the factors that influence this ambiguity. A monocular see-through Head Mounted Display (HMD) presenting fixed focus images is used to create extended reality. We have investigated image visibility in relation to four virtual focus distances between 33 cm and infinite. The HM...

Behavioral habituation during repeated exposure to aversive stimuli is an adaptive process. However, the way in which changes in self-reported emotional experience are related to the neural mechanisms supporting habituation remains unclear. We probed these mechanisms by repeatedly presenting negative images to healthy adult participants and recording behavioral and neural responses using functi...

The aim of this study was to investigate if and how temporal context influences subjective affective responses to emotional images. To do so, we examined whether the subjective evaluation of a target image is influenced by the valence of its preceding image, and/or its overall position in a sequence of images. Furthermore, we assessed if these potentially confounding contextual effects can be m...

Repeated stimulus presentations are commonly used in social and affective neuroimaging tasks, but much remains to be known about how the brain processes such repetitions. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging, we found three groups of brain regions with distinct response patterns during repeated presentations of natural scene images. One group consisted of several limbic, paralimbic, fron...
