The study aims to uncover how neural patterns of emotional engagement and disengagement change in response to real-world stimuli.
Analyzed fMRI data from two independent studies
Collected subjective emotional annotations as participants viewed movie clips
Employed predictive modeling to test generalizability of emotional response signatures between studies
Disengagement patterns consistently generalized across intense movie clips
Connections within and between sensorimotor and salience networks supported disengagement processes
Engagement signature prediction success was mixed, mainly linked to visual networks and attention
