Abstract

This study found pre-to-post ERP LPP amplitude reductions to affective pictures that were congruent with pictures viewed during a novel cue-focused meditation (CFM) task, and increases for incongruent. Medial-lateral frontal functional connectivity during the CFM partially mediated these effects, suggesting greater regulatory engagement during CFM had salutary emotion regulation effects.
