The goal of this proposal is to explore, using state-of-the-art techniques, such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG), the neural mechanisms underlying the influence of emotion on memory in healthy individuals. We will investigate the effects of emotional valence on explicit and implicit forms of memory, suing faces, pictures and words We will also study sex-related and personality differences (such as anxiety) in these processes. The findings from these experiments will not only advance our knowledge about brain function, but they will also have clinical implications, as they should contribute to a better understanding of certain psychiatric disorders, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and phobias.

这项提议的目的是利用最先进的技术，如功能磁共振成像(FMRI)和脑电(EEG)，探索健康个体情绪影响记忆的神经机制。 我们将使用面孔、图片和文字来研究情绪配价对外显和内隐记忆形式的影响。我们还将研究这些过程中与性别有关的和个性差异(如焦虑)。这些实验的发现不仅将促进我们对大脑功能的了解，而且还将具有临床意义，因为它们应该有助于更好地理解某些精神障碍，如创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)和恐惧症。
