“…These results replicate previous studies finding that this pattern of modulation is associated with emotional engagement (e.g., Bradley, Cuthbert, & Lang, 1996; Cuthbert et al, 2000; Lang, Greenwald, Bradley, & Hamm, 1993; Smith, Bradley, & Lang, 2005; for review, see Bradley & Lang, 2007). Similarly, the respiratory motor drive showed modulation by emotional arousal, with higher P0.1 during pleasant and unpleasant series compared to neutral series, which also replicates previous findings demonstrating increases in P0.1 (Van Diest et al, 2009) or other respiratory measures (Boiten, Frijda, & Wientjes, 1994; Gomez, Shafy, & Danuser, 2008; Kreibig, Wilhelm, Roth, & Gross, 2007; Ritz, George, & Dahme, 2000) during arousing emotional states.…”
