Neural Processing of Social Stimuli in High vs. Low Social Anxiety Individuals: A Pilot Study
Proceedings of the IEEE. 2024.
Social anxiety is characterized by fear in various socially related situations. Research demonstrates that people with high social anxiety have lower self-esteem and experience negative impacts from this state. The current pilot study aimed to investigate neural responses to social stimuli in individuals with high and low social anxiety. Fifty-seven participants completed an online screening form to assess anxiety levels, with four participants selected for each group based on their scores (High Social Anxiety group: M_age = 20.57, SD = 4.27; Low Social Anxiety group: M_age = 28.5, SD = 7.18). Participants underwent EEG recordings while being exposed to facial expression stimuli. Results revealed lower event-related potentials (ERPs) in individuals with high social anxiety compared to those with low social anxiety. These findings suggest altered neural processing of social cues in individuals with high social anxiety, highlighting the need for further investigation into the underlying mechanisms.

The study examines emotional responses to words representing a wide range of psychological valence and focuses on gender-related differences. We aimed to find out whether men and women differ in their emotional responses, and whether they can take the perspective of another gender. We used the slider paradigm (Warriner et al., 2017): participants saw a humanoid ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency following response (FFR) for the analysis of the intact perception of syllables in humans. For this purpose, event-related potentials (ERPs) in response to isolated Russian syllables were recorded and analyzed in 29 healthy persons in two frequency ranges, standard (1-40 Hz) and high frequency (70-150 ...

Several theories suggest that individual differences in the notion of the self are associated with relationship to nature and pro-environmental behavior. However, the diversity of existing theories makes it difficult to test this hypothesis in a comprehensive way. We combined a wide range of relevant constructs to explore whether self-centeredness (operationalized as a combination of ...

Individuals raised in institutionalized care settings are more likely to demonstrate developmental deficits than those raised in biological families. One domain that is vulnerable to the impoverished environments characteristic of some institutionalized care facilities is language development. We used EEG to assess ERPs and source-localized event-related spectral perturbations (ERSPs) associated with semantic processing at different levels of picture-word conflict and low ...

Introduction. Video games constitute a special form of digital media characterized by dynamic environments that respond to players’ actions and integrated algorithms. Within psychological research, video games offer better validity compared to traditional automated assessment systems, enabling a naturalistic investigation of various phenomena. Furthermore, video games shape mental processes. These features are widely exploited in international psychological research and are critical ...

Growing evidence suggests the specific systems for emotional information maintenance and processing in working memory, highlighting the role of cognitive domains in emotional awareness. The question of neural basis of social-emotional processing in working memory remains open. We hypothesized that the neural systems supporting working memory for emotional processing may rely on shared ‘core’ networks ...
