Emotieregulatie (ER)

Gross (1998)
Neural pathways before (blue arrows) and after
(red arrows) emotion regulation processing.
De neuro van ER:
• According to this, the superior temporal gyrus, angular gyrus and (pre)
supplementary motor area should be involved in execution of regulation
initiated by frontal areas:
• The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex may be related to regulation of cognitive
processes such as attention, while the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex may
not necessarily reflect the regulatory process per se, but signals salience
and therefore the need to regulate.
• We also identified a cluster in the anterior middle cingulate cortex as a
region, which is anatomically and functionally in an ideal position to
influence behavior and subcortical structures related to affect generation.
Hence this area may play a central, integrative role in emotion regulation.
Heuristic model of neural processing of
emotion regulation
• This heuristic model of neural processing of emotion regulation relates
to the modal model of emotion (Gross, 1998).
• Affective arousal is relayed via amygdala and basal ganglia to the VLPFC
and the anterior insula, as well as SMA, angular gyrus and STG (a).
• The VLPFC initiates the appraisal and signals the need to regulate the
emotion to the DLPFC (b).
• The DLFPC processes the regulation itself and gives a feedforward
signal (via the aMCC or directly) to angular gyrus, SMA, STG, amygdala
and basal ganglia, which in turn participate in the generation of a
(regulated) emotional state (c).
Strategies
ER en…
• ADHD?
• ASS?
• Bipolaire stoornis?
• Persoonlijkheidsstoornissen?

• NB: ER en executieve functies, ER en salience, etc..

Vaardigheden ER:
• Registratie (van emoties/stemming en 5 G’s)
• Afstand nemen/observeren.
• Communiceren/beschrijven.
• Afleiding zoeken/aandacht verplaatsen.
• Gedachten uitdagen
• Problemen aanpakken.
• Ontspanningsoefeningen.
