Intertrial variability in emotive reactions to approach-motivated positive pictures predicts attentional narrowing: The role of individual differences.

abstract：:Cyclical fluctuations in the ovarian hormones 17β-estradiol (E2; estrogen) and progesterone (P4) predict emotions, cognitive processes, and behaviors relevant to Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD); however, there are individual differences in sensitivity to normal hormone shifts. This study examined associations of...
