Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Attention Mediates the Effect of Emotional Arousal on Learning Outcomes in Multimedia Learning: an Eye-Tracking Study(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2023) Ozcelik, Erol; Aksaray, Sevgi Genc; Genc Aksaray, SevgiRecent findings from psychological studies have shown that emotional arousal improves human memory. However, more evidence is necessary if these results are generalisable to multimedia learning environments. Considering these needs, the study has the goal to examine the effect of emotional arousal on multimedia learning. Fifty-seven participants were presented with instructional materials with either high- or low-arousing words and pictures in an experimental study. The eye movements of participants were recorded while they studied the instructional materials to examine the online processes during learning. The results suggest that emotional arousal enhanced recall and transfer scores. The eye-tracking results demonstrate that emotional arousal attracted attention. The results of the mediation analysis suggest that fixation time on emotional pictures as an indicator of attention mediated the relationship between emotional arousal and learning outcomes. The findings show the importance of the guidance of attention by emotional multimedia elements for learning.Article Attention mediates the effect of emotional arousal on learning outcomes in multimedia learning: an eye-tracking study(2023) Genc Aksaray, Sevgi; Özçelik, ErolRecent findings from psychological studies have shown that emotional arousal improves human memory.

Recent findings from cognitive psychology provide opportunities for educators to use more direct ways of manipulating emotion to enhance learning. These studies have shown that emotionally arousing words and pictures are remembered better than neutral ones. Building upon these findings, this experimental study investigates the effect of arousal of instructional materials on learning. A total of 154 participants were randomly divided into a "high-emotional arousal" and a "low-emotional arousal" group in a between-subjects design. These results suggest that emotional arousal enhanced learning. Mediation analyses show that the effect of arousal on learning was partially mediated by interest. Accordingly, emotional arousal increased interest, which in turn improved transfer scores. The findings imply that motivational factors such as situational interest encouraged elaborative processing and deeper levels of learning. The direct effect of emotional arousal on learning was also significant.Article Kronik Hastalıklarda Duygu Düzenleme: Kalp ve Damar Sistemi Hastalıkları, Kanser, Migren, Fibromiyalji ve Sedef Hastalığı Üzerine Bir Derleme(Association for Clinical Psychology Research, 2023) Tuna, E.Emotion regulation (ER) involves conscious and automatic regulation of the occurrence, type, intensity, timing, and expression of emotions. Previous studies indicate that ER not only affects individuals’ mental health outcomes, but also plays a critical role in physical health as well. Especially in chronic diseases, how emotions are regulated shapes many patient variables including self-care, treatment adherence, and stress management; affecting both physical and psychological well-being. Furthermore, there is evidence that ER plays a role in initiation and prognosis of some chronic diseases. The aim of this review article was to summarize evidence regarding the association between chronic diseases and ER, and describe limitations in the existing studies in order to guide future research. To reach this aim, after a brief discussion of the mechanisms between emotions and health, we discussed research findings on ER in cardiovascular disease (CVD), cancer, migraine, fibromyalgia, and psoriasis, respectively. Findings indicate that emotion and ER play a role in the etiology of CVD; yet there are mixed findings regarding their role in the etiology of cancer. Research on migraine, psoriasis and fibromyalgia are rather correlational. Findings generally suggest that individuals with a chronic disease report more problems in ER as compared to healthy individuals. Frequent use of less adaptive strategies among patients have been related to less favorable outcomes such as psychopathology symptoms, bodily symptoms, and lower quality of life. Understanding ER in chronic diseases could guide the development of prevention and intervention programs aimed at increasing patients’ quality of life. The article ends with an evaluation of the literature and suggestions for clinical practice. © 2023 Klinik Psikoloji Araştırmaları Derneği.

The second goal is to identify brain regions associated with remembering and forgetting by finding brain activation differences during encoding of remembered and forgotten stimuli. The third goal is to examine which brain areas are activated when studying emotional pictures compared to neutral ones. Method: In each trial, a picture of an object followed by an emotional or neutral picture from the Turkish culture were presented to 15 volunteers. The effect of the succeeding pictures on the remembering of preceding stimuli was examined. The participants studied the stimuli in the magnetic resonance scanner and, meanwhile, brain images were taken. The memory performances of the participants were measured with the recognition test administered one week later. Results: Behavioral results suggest that emotion has no effect on memory for preceding stimuli. Functional magnetic resonance imaging results indicate that remembered stimuli compared to forgotten ones caused more activation in left inferior frontal gyrus and left superior medial gyrus. Emotional pictures create more activation in the - mid-temporal gyrus and supramarginal gyrus compared to neutral images. Conclusion: Brain structures in which activations are observed in remembered stimuli compared to forgotten ones (left inferior frontal gyrus and left superior medial gyrus) are responsible for the semantic elaboration and associative memory formation. Thus, it can be concluded that object pictures are remembered because they are processed more deeply. Besides, activations are observed in the areas known to be related to the processing of emotional face expressions when emotional and neutral pictures are compared.Article Losing the Life: a Review on Autobiographical Memory in Alzheimer's Disease(Istanbul Univ, Fac Letters, dept Psychology, 2021) Aydin, Oyku; Cengil, Betul Beyza; Kaynak, HandeAlzheimer's disease (AD), the most common type of dementia among older adults, is a progressive and neurodegenerative brain disease. AD is characterized by progressive memory impairments, but not other types of dementia. Autobiographical memory (AM) is defined as episodes recollected from individuals' life, and it is one of the memory systems impaired in AD. One consequence of AM decline in AD is difficulties in the retrieval of recent AMs rather than past ones. AM contains both episodic and semantic components, and it is crucial for self-concept. The aim of the present study is to review the current understanding of AM in people with AD. In the introduction part of the review, AD and its cognitive correlates are presented in detail, with how AM performance is important for the self. In the second part of the review, AM deteriorations in patients with AD are discussed. Factors, such as emotion and olfaction, affecting AM are mentioned along with the neural substrates. In this regard, the effect of the emotional dimension (e.g., valence) on the formation and retrieval of AMs is discussed and how AM is studied with olfactory stimuli is presented, respectively. Studies on the link between AM and emotion have shown that there is a positive shift of AM in AD, indicating that patients with AD remember their AMs more positively. In addition, olfactory stimuli evoke more AMs than verbal and visual stimuli. The conclusion section of the current review is devoted to some recommendations that might guide future research. For instance, stage-by-stage investigation of AM in AD and the comparison of them in relation to relevant variables could be one way of providing detailed findings on the nature of AM in AD.
