...In terms of valence, positive and negative emotions differ in how they affect various kinds of cognitive processing: memory encoding (Kensinger, 2009; Mather & Carstensen, 2005; Mickley & Kensinger, 2008; Ochsner, 2000; Talmi, Schimmack, Paterson, & Moscovitch, 2007), the scope of attention (Fenske & Eastwood, 2003; Fredrickson & Branigan, 2005; Rowe, Hirsh, & Anderson, 2007), cognitive flexibility (Isen & Daubman, 1984; Isen, Johnson, Mertz, & Robinson, 1985), creative problem solving (Isen, Daubman, & Nowicki, 1987; Subramaniam, Kounios, Parrish, & JungBeeman, 2009), cognitive control (Dreisbach, 2006), knowledge retrieval (Bäum & Kuhbandner, 2007), and perceptual processing (Kuhbandner et al., 2009)....

...This means that the human response is not only a function of stimulus patterns but also affected by personal traits, knowledge, expectations, and the initial emotional state of a person (Kuhbandner et al., 2009)....

...In contrast, positive mood usually signals safe situations wherein fast and accurate monitoring of the external word is not necessary, implying that we can impose our internalized representations derived from past experiences on our perception of the environment (Fredrickson, 2001)....

...Several studies suggest that the amplitude of ongoing activity in the alpha frequency range (around 10 Hz) modulates the way incoming information is processed (Ray and Cole, 1985; Klimesch et al., 2007)....

...Together, these findings have led to the hypothesis that alpha oscillations represent an active top-down driven filter mechanism by regulating excitation and inhibition of the cortex (Klimesch et al., 2007)....

...For instance, individuals in positive moods have been shown to process incoming information in a global manner at the expense of local details (e.g. Fredrickson and Branigan, 2005), to use schemas and stereotypes to fill in blanks during information processing (e.g. Bodenhausen, 1993; Bless et al.,…...
