How positive and negative feedback following real interactions changes subsequent sender ratings Open

Antje Peters, Jendrik Witte, Hanne Helming, Robert Moeck, Thomas Straube , et al. · 2025

Amygdala and cortical gamma‐band responses to emotional faces are modulated by attention to valence Open

Enya M. Weidner, Stephan Moratti, Sebastian Schindler, Philip Grewe, Christian G. Bien , et al. · 2024
