注意力分散和认知重评价在早期阶段影响情绪生成过程，并已被证明有效地减弱情绪反应。抑制情绪表达行为被认为是不太有益的，因为后来的实施，但实证结果是混合的。因此，本研究考察了这些情绪调节策略在被试观看不愉快图片时减弱晚期积极电位（LPP）的时间动态。结果显示，所有策略都成功地降低了LPP和自我报告的负面情绪。我们证实分心在认知重评之前减弱LPP。令人惊讶的是，表达抑制早在注意力分散时就影响了情绪反应。这表明，抑制是预防性的，从一开始就破坏了情绪生成过程，而不是针对情绪反应本身。因此，所获得的结果指出了考虑以反应为中心的情绪调节策略实施的时间点的重要性。(C) 2013 Elsevier b.v.版权所有
Distraction and cognitive reappraisal influence the emotion-generative process at early stages and have been shown to effectively attenuate emotional responding. Inhibiting emotion-expressive behavior is thought to be less beneficial due to later implementation, but empirical results are mixed. Thus, the current study examined the temporal dynamics of these emotion regulation strategies at attenuating the late positive potential (LPP) while participants were shown unpleasant pictures. Results revealed that all strategies successfully reduced the LPP and self-reported negative affect. We confirmed that distraction attenuated the LPP earlier than cognitive reappraisal. Surprisingly, expressive suppression affected emotional responding as early as distraction. This suggests that suppression was used preventively and disrupted the emotion-generative process from the very beginning instead of targeting the emotional response itself. Thus, the obtained results point to the importance of considering the point in time when response-focused emotion regulation strategies are being implemented. (C) 2013 Elsevier B. V.
