Cerebral processing of nonverbal affective stimuli: differential effects of cognitive and affective sets on hemispheric asymmetry.

abstract：:This event-related potential (ERP) study investigated neural correlates of cognitive reappraisal during the exposure to food cues. Thirty-three healthy, normal-weight women viewed images of high-caloric food and non-food items after an overnight fast. The participants were instructed to either passively look at the pi...
