New preprint! We show that avoidable threats induce attentive immobility, i.e. alpha suppression, bradycardia, pupil dilation, and centralized gaze, that enhances perception. Memory encoding, however, relies on separate electrocortical and physiological responses.

Exciting news! Our latest paper is now published 🎉
We dive into the fear generalization literature to see how individual fear gen profiles are typically quantified, extracted the most commonly used measures, and compared them using simulated and empirical data: doi.org/10.1016/j.bp...
Together with @mreutter.bsky.social, @leahilde.bsky.social, @tinalonsdorf.bsky.social, @martandreatta.bsky.social, @gamerlab.bsky.social and more colleagues who aren’t on Bluesky (yet)!
Interested in fear conditioning and declarative memory? In our newest article we found that higher anxiety sensitivity was associated with increased P300 and LPP amplitudes, but not enhanced memory performance.
