Emotional mnemonic discrimination task. During the encoding phase, participants are shown images and asked to rate them as “positive,” “negative,” or “neutral.” After a 45-min delay, participants were given a recognition test during the retrieval phase, where they were shown repeated images (targets), similar but not identical images (lures), and brand-new images (foils). Participants were asked to rate the images as “old” (image seen before) or “new” (new or different than images seen before). Permission was obtained for the use of all images in this figure, in which the images are licensed by Shutterstock, available at https://www.shutterstock.com/.
