“…In event-related potentials (ERPs), this preferential processing of emotional stimuli is visible already at the stage of perceptual encoding: Emotional content increases activation in the extrastriate visual cortex, resulting in modulations of the P1 component as demonstrated for affective pictures (e.g., Delplanque, Lavoie, Hot, Silvert, & Sequeira, 2004) and facial expressions of emotion (Hammerschmidt, Sennhenn-Reulen, & Schacht, 2017;Rellecke, Palazova, Sommer, & Schacht, 2011;Rellecke, Sommer, & Schacht, 2012). Modulations in the time range of the P1, that is around 100-150 ms, have also been reported for written words (Bayer, Sommer, & Schacht, 2012;Hofmann, Kuchinke, Tamm, Võ, & Jacobs, 2009;Keuper et al, 2013Keuper et al, , 2014Kuchinke, Krause, Fritsch, & Briesemeister, 2014;Rellecke et al, 2011;Scott, O'Donnell, Leuthold, & Sereno, 2009).…”
