“…They found that greater symptoms of MDD were associated with less emotional modulation of the LPP, and greater GAD symptomatology (controlling for MDD symptoms) was associated with greater negative potentiation of the LPP, suggesting that emotion dysregulation in GAD and MDD may stem from abnormal emotion generation (e.g., abnormal intensities of the emotions generated). Finally, Rosenthal and colleagues (this issue) investigated how individuals diagnosed with BPD reacted emotionally to personally-relevant (vs. standardized) sounds and found that individuals with BPD (vs. healthy controls) reported higher arousal and lower valence, and heightened skin conductance responses in response to personally-relevant unpleasant sounds.…”

Emotion Regulation: A Transdiagnostic Perspective on a New RDoC Domain

It is widely agreed that emotion regulation plays an important role in many psychological disorders. We make the case that emotion regulation is in fact a key transdiagnostic factor, using the Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) as an organizing framework. In particular, we first consider how transdiagnostic and RDoC approaches have extended categorical views. Next, we examine links among emotion generation, emotion regulation, and psychopathology, with particular attention to key emotion regulation stages including identification, strategy selection, implementation, and monitoring. We then propose that emotion regulation be viewed as a sixth domain in the RDoC matrix, and provide a brief overview of how the literature has used the RDoC units of analyses to study emotion regulation. Finally, we highlight opportunities for future research and make recommendations for assessing and treating psychopathology.

“…Although syndromal features have begun to be characterized empirically, misophonia has not been formally recognized as a specific type of neurological, audiological, or psychiatric disorder. Over-responsivity to auditory stimuli is a feature observed among a wide range of neurological, auditory, medical and psychiatric disorders such as tinnitus, hyperacusis (Jastreboff and Jastreboff, 2001 ), migraine headaches (Sullivan et al, 2013 ), autism spectrum disorder (Ben-Sasson et al, 2009a ; Danesh and Kaf, 2012 ; Lane et al, 2012 ), posttraumatic stress disorder (Attias et al, 1996 ; Finsterwald and Alberini, 2014 ), borderline personality disorder (Rosenthal et al, 2016 ), bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia (Cabranes et al, 2013 ). The precise nature of the relationship between misophonia and these disorders is unknown.…”

Misophonia is a neurobehavioral syndrome phenotypically characterized by heightened autonomic nervous system arousal and negative emotional reactivity (e. g., irritation, anger, anxiety) in response to a decreased tolerance for specific sounds. The aims of this review are to (a) characterize the current state of the field of research on misophonia, (b) highlight what can be inferred from the small research literature to inform treatment of individuals with misophonia, and (c) outline an agenda for research on this topic. We extend previous reviews on this topic by critically reviewing the research investigating mechanisms of misophonia and differences between misophonia and other conditions. In addition, we integrate this small but growing literature with basic and applied research from other literatures in a cross-disciplinary manner.

“…Other results supported higher emotional activation in BPD individuals considering specific valence categories (e.g., negative stimuli) (Dziobek et al, 2011;Ebner-Priemer et al, 2009;Fitzpatrick & Kuo, 2015;Herpertz et al, 1999). Eventually, some studies were in line with enhanced emotional activation associated to BPD-related stimuli as manifested by higher self-report negative arousal (Elices et al, 2012;Kuo et al, 2014;Rosenthal et al, 2016), as well as physiological (Kuo et al, 2014;Limberg, Barrow, Freyberger, & Hamm, 2011;Rosenthal et al, 2016;Sauer et al, 2014;Schmahl et al, 2004) and behavioral (Limberg et al, 2011) hyperactivation.…”

Emotional hyperreactivity (Linehan, 1993) is the most investigated construct in borderline personality disorder (BPD). However, experimental studies revealed mixed results on the topic. Our main objective is to comprehensively summarize the results on emotional reactivity in BPD compared to healthy controls (HCs), using a meta-analytic approach, considering different emotional response systems (physiology, behavior, selfreport). We included 31 experimental studies (1,675 subjects). We observed null to small effect sizes for several physiological and behavioral outcomes. Conversely, BPD subjects revealed a moderate to large difference in valence attributed to emotional stimuli and a small difference in self-reported arousal. Significant differences in pooled effect sizes were found between self-report and physiological outcomes. Several sources of heterogeneity were explored. In general, the hyperreactivity hypothesis was not supported. Additional dysfunctional processes should be taken into consideration to understand BPD emotional responsiveness.
