Background: Research suggests that individuals with different attachment patterns process social information differently,
especially in terms of facial emotion recognition. However, few studies have explored social information processes in
adolescents. This study examined the behavioral and ERP correlates of emotional processing in adolescents with different
attachment orientations (insecure attachment group and secure attachment group; IAG and SAG, respectively). This study
also explored the association of these correlates to individual neuropsychological profiles.
Methodology/Principal Findings: We used a modified version of the dual valence task (DVT), in which participants classify
stimuli (faces and words) according to emotional valence (positive or negative). Results showed that the IAG performed
significantly worse than SAG on tests of executive function (EF attention, processing speed, visuospatial abilities and
cognitive flexibility). In the behavioral DVT, the IAG presented lower performance and accuracy. The IAG also exhibited
slower RTs for stimuli with negative valence. Compared to the SAG, the IAG showed a negative bias for faces; a larger P1 and
attenuated N170 component over the right hemisphere was observed. A negative bias was also observed in the IAG for
word stimuli, which was demonstrated by comparing the N170 amplitude of the IAG with the valence of the SAG. Finally,
the amplitude of the N170 elicited by the facial stimuli correlated with EF in both groups (and negative valence with EF in
the IAG).
Conclusions/Significance: Our results suggest that individuals with different attachment patterns process key emotional
information and corresponding EF differently. This is evidenced by an early modulation of ERP components’ amplitudes,
which are correlated with behavioral and neuropsychological effects. In brief, attachments patterns appear to impact
multiple domains, such as emotional processing and EFs. |
