Cognition and Depression: Current Status and Future Directions (2010, background): “There is consensus that anxious individuals favor negative interpretations of ambiguous stimuli and often do so in tasks that indicate that these biases operate on an automatic level (see Mathews & MacLeod 2005 and Zinbarg & Yoon 2008 for reviews).”
EEG delta oscillations as a correlate of basic homeostatic and motivational processes. (2012, unknown): “(Corr, 2009).”
Integrating Personality Structure, Personality Process, and Personality Development (2017, unknown): “Examples include biological theories of personality, such as Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory (Corr, 2008), that propose means by which neurophysiological and endocrinal processes generally shape behaviour but vary systematically among and within individuals, thereby accounting for inter-individual ”
PROFILING TASK STRESS WITH THE DUNDEE STRESS STATE QUESTIONNAIRE (2013, background): “Correlations between the NASA-TLX and worry are small, verging on the trivial. Correlation magnitudes are in some cases quite substantial, consistent with the Lazarus (1999) hypothesis that appraisal and coping are drivers of emotion.”
Motivation and Personality: A Neuropsychological Perspective (2013, methodology): “Behavioral approach system-driven movement along the temporo-spatial goal gradient is complex and requires some form of ‘sub-goal scaffolding’ (Corr, 2008).”
Toward an evolutionary social neuroscience of religion (2011, background): “This can come about because the situation evokes two or more conflicting response options, for example when a dieter is presented with a delicious, albeit fattening, dessert (Gray & McNaughton, 2000; Corr, 2008).”
Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory and emotion regulation difficulties: A multimodal investigation (2010, background): “Although contrary to past findings of an association between BAS–Fun-Seeking and dysfunctional impulsivity, Leone and Russo (2009) argue that BAS–Fun-Seeking may be associated with functional impulsivity when the reward is proximal (as it was in our anagrams task).”
Threat and defense: From anxiety to approach (2014, background): “BIS-mediated anxious avoidance following threat appears to be supplanted by approach motivation (Corr, 2008; Nash et al., 2011).”
Dimensions of perfectionism, behavioral inhibition, and rumination (2010, result): “SOP was not expected to be associated with BAS fun, in keeping with observations suggesting that there are key differences among the BAS subscales and only drive and reward responsiveness reflect complex approach tendencies (see Corr, 2008; Leone, 2009).”
Approach and Avoidance Behaviour: Multiple Systems and their Interactions (2013, background): “To move along the temporo-spatial gradient to the final biological reinforcer, some form of “subgoal scaffolding” is needed (Corr, 2008b).”
Why do narcissists take more risks? Testing the roles of perceived risks and benefits of risky behaviors. (2009, background): “As discussed earlier, the view that narcissistic behavior is more strongly fueled by reward sensitivity rather than punishment insensitivity is consistent with research on psychopathy (Wallace & Newman, 2008), a trait that shares many similarities with narcissism (Paulhus & Williams, 2002).”
Automatic and controlled processes in behavioural control: Implications for personality psychology (2010, methodology): “The assumption that consciousness per se, and its underlying processes, do have a survival value, and fitness-enhancing functions, is suggested by: (a) inter-individual consistency (as far as we know)—a lack of such a value would tend to lead to genetic drift and less obvious consistency; (b) qualia”
What is reinforcement sensitivity? Neuroscience paradigms for approach‐avoidance process theories of personality (2008, background): “Some (e.g. Matthews, 2008) doubt the utility of a comparative approach, given the clear role of higher cognitive information-processing and semantic constructs in personality.”
