Department of Psychology, University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy
Brain Res 1068:213-20. 2006..These findings suggest that while stimulus detection and categorization, reflected in the LPP, is mandatory, autonomic modulation reflects initial orienting responses that habituate rapidly... 
Watching emotional movies: affective reactions and gender differencesMaurizio Codispoti
Department of Psychology, University of Bologna, Bologna Italy
Int J Psychophysiol 69:90-5. 2008..The present findings suggest that sustained exposure to pleasant and unpleasant stimuli elicit similar cardiac orienting when stimuli are equated for subjective report of emotional arousal...- Affective modulation of the LPP and α-ERD during picture viewingAndrea De Cesarei

Department of Psychology, University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy
Psychophysiology 44:680-6. 2007..In contrast, responses related to orienting, categorization, and communicative functions did not covary with picture size... - The categorization of natural scenes: brain attention networks revealed by dense sensor ERPsMaurizio Codispoti
Department of Psychology, University of Bologna, Italy
Neuroimage 32:583-91. 2006..These findings suggest that selective attention to category-relevant features reflects the interactions between prefrontal and inferior temporal cortex during visual processing of natural scenes... - The influence of color on emotional perception of natural scenesMaurizio Codispoti
Department of Psychology, University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy
Psychophysiology 49:11-6. 2012..These findings imply that the recognition of the emotional content of scenes, even when presented very briefly, does not critically rely on color information... - Implicit and explicit categorization of natural scenesMaurizio Codispoti
Department of Psychology, University of Bologna, Viale Berti Pichat, 5 40127 Bologna, Italy
Prog Brain Res 156:53-65. 2006..Although early and late ERP components vary with stimulus relevance, given that they are differentially affected by stimulus and task manipulations, they appear to index different facets of picture processing... - Fuzzy picture processing: effects of size reduction and blurring on emotional processingAndrea De Cesarei
Department of Psychology, University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy
Emotion 8:352-63. 2008..These findings suggest that high spatial frequencies affect subjective emotional response whereas attentional capture by affective stimuli seems to rely on information that is sufficient to allow a categorization of picture content... - Unmasking emotion: exposure duration and emotional engagementMaurizio Codispoti
Department of Psychology, University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy
Psychophysiology 46:731-8. 2009..Between 25-80 ms, individual differences in discriminability were critical in observing affective reactions to masked pictures... - Scene identification and emotional response: which spatial frequencies are critical?Andrea De Cesarei
Department of Psychology, University of Bologna, 40127 Bologna, Italy
J Neurosci 31:17052-7. 2011..The engagement of corticolimbic appetitive and defensive systems, reflected in the LPP affective modulation, varied with picture identification, and did not critically or preferentially depend on either low or high spatial frequencies... - When does size not matter? Effects of stimulus size on affective modulationAndrea De Cesarei
Department of Psychology, University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy
Psychophysiology 43:207-15. 2006..Moreover, affective modulation of earlier processes was reduced in smaller compared to larger sizes, whereas no changes in affective modulation were observed at later stages... - The temporal stability of the effects induced by the cued reaction time taskFrancesco Versace
University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy
Assessment 15:145-52. 2008..To maximize the reliability of the data collected using the CRTT, the validity effect seems to be a better probe of spatial orienting of attention... 
Effects of picture size reduction and blurring on emotional engagementAndrea De Cesarei
Department of Psychology, University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy
PLoS ONE 5:e13399. 2010....- Psychological distress of conservative and nonconservative uterine surgery: a prospective studyBruno Baldaro

Department of Psychology, University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy
Psychophysiology 40:863-8. 2003..The results suggest that the neuroendocrine system responds selectively to affective motivationally relevant pictures... - Directed and motivated attention during processing of natural scenesVera Ferrari

J Cogn Neurosci 20:1753-61. 2008.... - Detecting novelty and significanceVera Ferrari
University of Florida, USA
J Cogn Neurosci 22:404-11. 2010..The data support an interpretation that the N2 reflects perceptual fluency and is attenuated when a current stimulus matches an active memory representation and that the amplitude of the P3 reflects stimulus meaning and significance... - Selectively attending to natural scenes after alcohol consumption: an ERP analysisAndrea De Cesarei
Department of Psychology, University of Bologna, Viale Berti Pichat, 5-40127 Bologna, Italy
Biol Psychol 72:35-45. 2006..In addition, post-perceptual processes were also impaired by alcohol intoxication... - Facial emotion recognition in trait anxietyPaola Surcinelli

J Anxiety Disord 20:110-7. 2006..Results showed that participants with high-trait anxiety recognized fear faces significantly better while the two groups did not differ in recognition of other facial expressions... - Stimulus novelty and emotion perception: the near absence of habituation in the visual cortexHarald T Schupp
Department of Psychology, University of Konstanz, Konstanz, Germany
Neuroreport 17:365-9. 2006..These findings suggest the near absence of habituation in differential emotion processing during perceptual processing... - Event-related potentials and visual avoidance in blood phobics: is there any attentional bias?Giulia Buodo
