“…We propose that all of the early time frames prior to 300 msec contribute to semanticaffective processing. This suggestion is corroborated by Hinojosa, Carretié, Valcárcel, Méndez-Bértolo, and Pozo (2009). When the task is likely to be performed without semantic information, by identifying letter strings in contrast with nonletter stimuli, none of the early time frames is sensitive to the affective features of words.…”

“…Recent studies also show that the amplitude of N170 was greater when visual attention was drawn to the eyes, suggesting its role in orienting to the most socially salient features of the stimuli (Hinojosa et al 2015). The N250 component reflects processing of face emotional valence (Hinojosa et al 2009). Both N170 and N250 were shown to be abnormal in children with social disabilities (McPartland et al 2004;Webb et al 2010) and anxiety (Holmes et al 2009), but electrophysiological indices of face perception have not been studied in children with aggression.…”

Objective: We present the rationale and design of a randomized controlled trial of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for aggression in children and adolescents, which is conducted in response to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) approach initiative. Specifically, the study is focused on the brain-behavior associations within the RDoC construct of frustrative non-reward. On the behavioral level, this construct is defined by reactions elicited in response to withdrawal or prevention of reward, most notably reactive aggression. This study is designed to test the functional magnetic resonance (fMRI) and electrophysiological (EEG) correlates of aggression and its reduction after CBT. Methods: Eighty children and adolescents with high levels of aggression across multiple traditional diagnostic categories, ages 8-16, will be randomly assigned to receive 12 sessions of CBT or 12 sessions of supportive psychotherapy. Clinical outcomes will be measured by the ratings of aggressive behavior collected at baseline, midpoint, and endpoint evaluations, and by the Improvement Score of the Clinical Global Impressions Scale assigned by an independent evaluator (blinded rater). Subjects will also perform a frustration-induction Go-NoGo task and a task of emotional face perception during fMRI scanning and EEG recording at baseline and endpoint. Results: Consistent with the NIMH strategic research priorities, if functional neuroimaging and EEG variables can identify subjects who respond to CBT for aggression, this can provide a neuroscience-based classification scheme that will improve treatment outcomes for children and adolescents with aggressive behavior. Conclusions: Demonstrating that a change in the key nodes of the emotion regulation circuitry is associated with a reduction of reactive aggression will provide evidence to support the validity of the frustrative non-reward construct.

“…The words were selected from the LEXESP (Sebastián-Gallés et al, 2000) and from prior studies by our group (Hinojosa, Carretié, Valcárcel, Méndez-Bértolo, & Pozo, 2009;Hinojosa, Méndez-Bértolo, & Pozo, 2010, 2012Hinojosa et al, 2015;Méndez-Bértolo, Pozo, & Hinojosa, 2011a). The selection of the words attempted to include as many words as possible with a marked affective value in addition to neutral words.…”

Affective norms of 875 Spanish words for five discrete emotional categories and two emotional dimensions

et al. 2015

In the present study, we introduce affective norms for a new set of Spanish words, the Madrid Affective Database for Spanish (MADS), that were scored on two emotional dimensions (valence and arousal) and on five discrete emotional categories (happiness, anger, sadness, fear, and disgust), as well as on concreteness, by 660 Spanish native speakers. Measures of several objective psycholinguistic variables-grammatical class, word frequency, number of letters, and number of syllables-for the words are also included. We observed high split-half reliabilities for every emotional variable and a strong quadratic relationship between valence and arousal. Additional analyses revealed several associations between the affective dimensions and discrete emotions, as well as with some psycholinguistic variables. This new corpus complements and extends prior databases in Spanish and allows for designing new experiments investigating the influence of affective content in language processing under both dimensional and discrete theoretical conceptions of emotion. These norms can be downloaded as supplemental materials for this article from www.dropbox.com/s/o6dpw3irk6utfhy/ Hinojosa%20et%20al_Supplementary%20materials.xlsx?dl=0.
