本研究评估了化学感觉和视觉刺激的情绪调节。使用认知重新评价，40名女性参与者调节自己的情绪，以应对恶心的图片和气味，而惊吓反射引起的情绪评级进行了评估。参与者报告说，他们对气味和图片的情绪都在下调，同时感觉不那么消极，也不那么兴奋。虽然被评为同样消极和唤起，气味介绍伴随着更大的惊吓反应比图片介绍。此外，与图片相比，对气味的情绪调节遵循一个显着不同的时间过程，表明不太有效的情绪调节反应恶心的气味。问卷调查数据显示，对气味的情绪调节结果之间的差异是不归因于不同的调节策略。因此，目前的数据表明嗅觉在情绪感知中的独特作用，并表明认知情绪调节-虽然通常有效-也可能是有限的。(C)2012 Elsevier B.

The present study assessed emotion regulation in response to chemosensory and visual stimuli. Using cognitive reappraisal, 40 female participants regulated their emotions in response to disgusting pictures and odors, while the startle reflex was elicited and emotion ratings were assessed. Participants reported feeling less negative, and less aroused, while down-regulating their emotions towards both odors and pictures. Although being rated as equally negative and arousing, odor presentations were accompanied by larger startle responses than picture presentations. Furthermore, as compared to pictures emotion regulation towards odors followed a strikingly different time course suggesting less effective emotion regulation in response to disgusting odors. Questionnaire data show that differences between emotion regulation outcome towards odors was not attributable to different regulation strategies used. Thus, the current data suggest a unique role of olfaction in emotion perception, and show that cognitive emotion regulation - although being generally effective - may also be limited.
