The Influences of Emotion on Learning and Memory (2017, background): “Another study reported greater alpha activity in the left frontal region (less left frontal alpha power) was associated with approach motivation, while the greater alpha activity in right frontal (less right frontal alpha power) was associated with withdrawal motivation (Harmon-Jones et al., 2010).”
Relationships of personality, affect, emotional intelligence and coping with student stress and academic success: Different patterns of association for stress and success (2012, positive): “…of emotions, the present findings can interpreted in terms of the linkage of positive and negative affect with approach and withdrawal respectively (Harmon-Jones et al., 2010; Watson et al., 1999), and with previous reports that NA is associated with perceived stress and psychological distress and…”
Thriving and Surviving: Approach and Avoidance Motivation and Lateralization (2011, background): “Distinguishing the relative contributions of these variables is vital, for, as Harmon-Jones, Gable, and Peterson (2010) suggest, situational influences have the potential to enhance or attenuate trait effects.”
Predicting Advertising success beyond Traditional Measures: New Insights from Neurophysiological Methods and Market Response Modeling (2015, background): “Similarly, the relationship between affect and hemispheric asymmetries in frontal brain activity has a long history in psychology and neuroscience (Davidson 2004; Demaree et al. 2005; Harmon-Jones, Gable, and Peterson 2010).”
Approach the Good, Withdraw from the Bad—A Review on Frontal Alpha Asymmetry Measures in Applied Psychological Research (2013, background): “Several published studies show that the FAA metric is also influenced by unilateral hand contractions (Harmon-Jones et al., 2010), the seating position (Harmon-Jones, Gable & Price, 2011) or task difficulty in different working memory tasks, even in the absence of emotional distractors (Baldwin &…”
The emotive neuroscience of embodiment (2012, background): “In addition, asymmetric frontal cortical activity measured with electroencephalographic (EEG) neuroimaging techniques has been associated with the motivational direction of emotions (Harmon-Jones 2003; Harmon-Jones et al. 2010).”
