Summary: Jaak Panksepp's Affective Neuroscience Theory proposes the existence of seven primary emotional systems in the mammalian brain, shaped by evolutionary processes to support survival. The Affective Neuroscience Personality Scales were designed to assess individual differences in these primary emotional systems.

Summary: The study found two distinct projection neuron subpopulations within the insular cortex responsible for encoding fear and extinction memories. Reciprocal inhibition between these subpopulations controls the emergence of fear or extinction memory.

Summary: This article proposes using personality assessment to adapt affective intelligent systems and verifies the potential of this adaptation mechanism through experiments linking personality traits to psychophysiological signals and reactions to complex stimulus environments.

Summary: A brain-computer interface (BCI) allows direct communication between a user and a computer through the central nervous system. An affective BCI (aBCI) monitors and regulates the emotional state of the brain, which has various applications in human cognition, communication, decision-making, and health. This tutorial provides a comprehensive and up-to-date guide on aBCIs, covering basic concepts, components of a closed-loop aBCI system, representative applications, and challenges and opportunities in aBCI research and applications.

Summary: This study presents the German version of the Brief Affective Neuroscience Personality Scales (BANPS) and examines its reliability and validity. The BANPS-GL showed good reliability and acceptable factorial validity, and also improved the psychometric properties of the original long form. The inclusion of the dimension LUST allows for a complete coverage of the primary emotion dispositions.

Summary: The ICD-11 personality disorder model is the first comprehensive assessment tool for personality pathology, including PD dysfunction-severity and five trait qualifiers. Through exploratory factor analysis, it was found that the internal factor included self and interpersonal dysfunction, while the external factor included dissociality and reckless impulsivity.

Summary: This study found that scores on the Hypomanic Personality Scale were related to emotional clarity but not attention to emotion. High HPS scores were associated with intensity and instability of negative affect only for those at low and mean levels of attention. There was a significant indirect association between HPS scores and emotional outcomes through low emotional clarity.

Summary: The study developed a neural signature for predicting subjective fear using fMRI and machine learning, showing the crucial role of distributed brain systems in accurate fear prediction. The findings suggest that the neural representation of subjective fear differs from conditioned threat and general negative affect.

Summary: Traditional video recommendation systems provide customized media content based on viewers' historical records, but they face a cold-start problem when data is insufficient. Affective video recommender systems address this issue by employing advanced affective analysis technologies. These systems can capture viewers' emotional responses through physical and physiological signals, and detect and collect changes in these signals using various techniques.

Summary: Borderline personality disorder is a complex psychopathological phenomenon characterized by instability in interpersonal relationships, self-image, and affects. The disturbance in interpersonal relationships in borderline extends beyond fragile and shifting relationships and involves certain styles in experiencing others.

Summary: Students' emotions are crucial in the teaching/learning process, especially in content recommender systems. However, research on emotional recommender systems in educational settings is limited. Through a systematic literature review, the need for hybridization of techniques in emotion recommendation systems to improve results was identified.

Summary: Previous studies on error processing have primarily focused on the posterior medial frontal cortex, but the role of other brain regions has been underestimated. This study used activation likelihood estimation meta-analyses to explore brain activity related to committing errors and responding successfully in interference tasks. It was found that the salience network and the temporoparietal junction were commonly involved in both correct and incorrect responses, indicating their general involvement in coping with situations that require increased cognitive control. Error-specific convergence was observed in the dorsal posterior cingulate cortex, posterior thalamus, and left superior frontal gyrus, while successful responding showed stronger convergence in the dorsal attention network and lateral prefrontal regions. Underrecruitment of these regions in error trials may reflect failures in activating the appropriate stimulus-response contingencies necessary for successful response execution.
