Disentangling incidental from integral effects of negative emotion during conflict-driven adaptive control: a systematic exploration Ghent University
In this project, we seek to better understand modulatory effects exerted by negative emotion on cognitive control. To this aim, we propose to compare two classes of emotional effects (integral vs. incidental) on cognitive control using a standard methodology in cognitive psychology and psychophysiology. This research program could potentially elucidate under which conditions negative emotion impinges on cognitive control.
