摘要

背景:困难的认知任务通常与负面情绪有关。仅仅是预期必须完成一项困难的任务,这种情况就已经存在了。对于困难的数学任务,最近有人提出,这种消极的情绪反应可能只存在于高度数学焦虑的人身上。然而,也可以想象,消极的情绪反应仅仅反映了数学被认为是困难的。在这里,我们调查了非数学焦虑的人在预期做困难的数学任务时是否也会经历消极的情绪反应。方法:我们比较了呈现数字提示后的大脑激活情况,这些数字提示表明即将到来的比例大小比较任务是困难的还是容易的。结果:与之前对高度数学焦虑个体的研究结果相比,我们观察到非数学焦虑个体在面对即将到来的困难任务的提示时,与负面情绪相关的网络被激活。然而,重要的是,数学焦虑分数并不能预测神经反应。此外,我们还观察到与认知控制过程相关的区域如前扣带皮层的激活,该区域被认为在情绪调节中起关键作用。结论:当预期即将到来的困难(数学)任务时,观察到情绪处理网络的激活。然而,这种激活并不是由个体的数学焦虑程度所预测的。因此,我们认为对困难的数学任务的消极情绪反应可能是一种相当普遍的反应,而不是数学焦虑个体所特有的。然而,这种最初的消极反应是否会影响数学成绩,可能取决于有效调节这些情绪的能力。

Anticipation of difficult tasks: neural correlates of negative emotions and emotion regulation.

Background: Difficult cognitive tasks are often associated with negative feelings. This can be already the case for the mere anticipation of having to do a difficult task. For the case of difficult math tasks, it was recently suggested that such a negative emotional response may be exclusive to highly math-anxious individuals. However, it is also conceivable that negative emotional responses simply reflect that math is perceived as difficult. Here we investigated whether non-math-anxious individuals also experience negative emotional responses when anticipating to do difficult math tasks.

Methods: We compared brain activation following the presentation of a numerical cue indicating either difficult or easy upcoming proportion magnitude comparison tasks.

Results: Comparable to previous results for highly math-anxious individuals we observed a network associated with negative emotions to be activated in non-math-anxious individuals when facing cues indicating a difficult upcoming task. Importantly, however, math anxiety scores did not predict the neural response. Furthermore, we observed activation in areas associated with processes of cognitive control areas such as anterior cingulate cortex, which were suggested to play a key role in emotion regulation.

Conclusion: Activation in the emotion processing network was observed when anticipating an upcoming difficult (math) task. However, this activation was not predicted by individual' degree of math anxiety. Therefore, we suggest that negative emotional responses to difficult math tasks might be a rather common reaction not specific to math-anxious individuals. Whether or not this initial negative response impairs math performance, however, might depend on the ability to regulate those emotions effectively.

期刊介绍: A well-established journal in the field of behavioral and cognitive neuroscience, Behavioral and Brain Functions welcomes manuscripts which provide insight into the neurobiological mechanisms underlying behavior and brain function, or dysfunction. The journal gives priority to manuscripts that combine both neurobiology and behavior in a non-clinical manner.
