“…The LPP is increased for the perception of emotional compared to neutral stimuli, and may reflect increased allocation of attention and processing resources (Cacioppo, Crites, Berntson, & Coles, 1993;Cuthbert, Schupp, Bradley, Birbaumer, & Lang, 2000;Olofsson, Nordin, Sequeira, & Polich, 2008). This boosted processing of emotional stimuli has been suggested to be independent of competing task demands (Hajcak, Dunning, & Foti, 2007; but see MacNamara, Ferri, & Hajcak, 2011;Schupp, Flaisch, Stockburger, & Junghöfer, 2006). The finding that LPP amplitude can be modulated through reappraisal has led to the proposition that it may constitute a neurophysiological marker of emotion regulation (Hajcak & Nieuwenhuis, 2006;Moser, Hajcak, Bukay, & Simons, 2006;Moser, Krompinger, Dietz, & Simons, 2009).…”
