“…Thus, personality dimensions would not differentially favour automatic orienting response toward emotional stimuli (here indexed by N200). This is consistent with the general absence of modulation by personality of P3a amplitude recorded after the presentation of emotional stimuli [2,15,16].…”

“…Most of these studies focused on the P3a while recording ERPs within single-stimulus protocols or following decision-unrelated stimuli [2,15,16]; these studies generally reported no differential influence of personality dimensions (extraversion and neuroticism) on P300 amplitude following pleasant and unpleasant stimuli. Conversely, within an oddball protocol, De Pascalis et al [17] recently reported that anxious (high-BIS) subjects showed larger P3b amplitude and impulsive (high-BAS) subjects disclosed smaller P3b amplitude to unpleasant target words, when compared to non-anxious and low-impulsivity subjects, respectively.…”

“…However, inconsistent with the current findings, Zuckerman and Russo (1992) showed that the blood pressures of extroverted and high sensation seekers were higher when compared with those who do not share these personal characteristics [28]. Extroverted people are sensitive to both positive and negative emotional stimuli [29,30]. The results also showed that regardless of personal charac-…”
Introduction: Individuals exposed to certain types of images, based on their personality features, experience different emotional states and physiological responses. The present study addressed the effects of stressful and pleasant stimuli on blood pressure and heart rate in male patients with coronary problems and healthy males based on sensation seeking levels. Methods: One hundred and seventy eight male patients with coronary artery diseases referred to Madani Heart Hospital, Tabriz, Iran; and 185 healthy male subjects completed the Sensation Seeking Scale-form V (SSS-V). After obtaining acceptable scores, 100 patients and 100 healthy males were classified in four groups: high sensation seeker patients, low sensation seeker patients, high sensation seeker healthy subjects, and low sensation seeker healthy subjects (each group with 50 samples aged 30-49). First, blood pressures and heart rates were recorded before stimulus induction. Then, the participants were exposed to stressor pictures. After 15 minutes of relaxation, and a cognitive task, the participants were exposed to pleasant pictures. The blood pressure and heart rate were recorded after presenting the two stimuli. Results: High sensation seeker patients achieved lower scores in diastolic blood pressure in comparison with low sensation seeker patients after presenting the stressful stimulus, and healthy high sensation seekers achieved lower scores in systolic blood pressure in comparison with healthy low sensation seekers presented with pleasant stimulus. Conclusions: Low sensation seeker patients experienced negative emotions more than high sensation seeker patients. Therefore, the role of induced mood states may be important in relation to physical health.
“…Many studies have focused on the role of temperamental traits in mediating the level of response to stimuli [8,19,20]. The results of those studies indicate that the level of the escalation of temperamental traits mediates the quality and quantity of response to visual stimuli as measured by event-related potentials, heart rate and reaction time.…”
