Early Signs of Emotional Recognition Deficits in Adolescent High-Binge Drinkers
2019
Background: Emotional dysregulation, measured with face recognition tasks, is prevalent in alcohol use disorders (AUD), constituting a risk factor for alcohol use and relapse. It is not clear howev...

Relaciones entre neurocognición, procesamiento emocional y funcionamiento social en la esquizofrenia
2017
Resumen: En la esquizofrenia se presentan una serie de déficits cognitivos que han hecho que la investigación y la práctica profesional actual se centren en el estudio de la neurocognición y la cognición social. Estos déficits tienen importantes implicaciones en el funcionamiento social. El objetivo del presente trabajo es analizar la relaciones entre neurocognición, cognición social, evaluada con tareas de reconocimiento de la emoción, y funcionamiento social. Sesenta personas con diagnóstico de esquizofrenia han formado la muestra y las áreas evaluadas han sido: funcionamiento ejecutivo y flexibilidad cognitiva, atención y vigilancia, memoria, velocidad de procesamiento, identificación y …
Music therapeutic emotional processing (MEP): Expression, awareness, and pain predict therapeutic outcome
2022
Successful emotional processing is pivotal for the therapeutic change, and music can support emotional processing. However, we know little on how music-based emotional processing actually predicts clinical outcomes. This study investigated music therapeutic emotional processing (MEP) as a predictor of therapeutic outcome in treatment for depression. Data consisted of self-reports of 64 clients (age range 19–57, 74% female) from a clinical trial (12 sessions) of integrative improvisational music therapy (IIMT). A 19-item MEP questionnaire was developed for assessing clients’ experiences after sessions. Emergent MEP factors were correlated with clients’ perceptions of the therapeutic value o…
The Role of Negative Affect in Emotional Processing of Food-Related Images in Eating Disorders and Obesity
2021
The aim of the present study was to analyze differences in the emotional processing (valence, arousal, and dominance) of food-related information in patients with eating disorders (ED), patients with obesity, and healthy women. Moreover, the mediator role of negative affect and the moderating role of the diagnostic group (ED vs. non-ED) were analyzed. Method: The sample consisted of 94 women (39 with eating disorders, 19 with obesity, and 36 healthy participants). Measures: International Affective Picture System (IAPS) food picture exposure task; Self-Assessment Manikin Analog-Visual Scale (SAM) appraising Arousal, Valence, and Dominance; Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26); Positive and Negativ…
Brain Functional Effects of Psychopharmacological Treatment in Major Depression: A Focus on Neural Circuitry of Affective Processing
2015
In the last two decades, neuroimaging research has reached a much deeper understanding of the neurobiological underpinnings of major depression (MD) and has converged on functional alterations in limbic and prefrontal neural networks, which are mainly linked to altered emotional processing observed in MD patients. To date, a considerable number of studies have sought to investigate how these neural networks change with pharmacological antidepressant treatment. In the current review, we therefore discuss results from a) pharmacological functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies investigating the effects of selective serotonin or noradrenalin reuptake inhibitors on neural activation…
