Uniqueness of Evaluative-Feedback: A Perspective from Cognitive Neuroscience

Experimental design: we employed an event-related design paradigm, according to different types of feedback, which included one run for the baseline (25 trials only presenting neutral feedback, namely "Next"), and two runs for evaluative feedback (75 trials totally presenting positive, neg...

Description
Summary:Experimental design: we employed an event-related design paradigm, according to different types of feedback, which included one run for the baseline (25 trials only presenting neutral feedback, namely "Next"), and two runs for evaluative feedback (75 trials totally presenting positive, negative, neutral feedback pseudo-randomly, namely "Clever", "Stupid", "Next") and performance feedback (75 trials presenting as above with "Correct", "Incorrect", "Next" instead) respectively. Conclusions As we've hypothesized, the involvement of several parts CMS, considered to function in the processing of self-referential stimuli, indicates the subjective information and self-knowledge evaluative-feedback may embody. [...]our results also implied that evaluative-feedback may arouse the memory of one's own self-knowledge about the personality, due to the activation of the medial temporal lobe.
