Mindfulness Trait Predicts Neurophysiological Reactivity Associated with Negativity Bias: An ERP Study

Table 4

Correlations between age, mindfulness (CAMS-R), and (a) mean amplitude difference among the three categories of pictures (Pos-Neu, Neg-Neu, and Pos-Neg) and (b) peak latencies of the original waveform (Pos, Neg, and Neu) at P2 (with three locations: frontal, frontocentral, and central) and LPP (with four locations: frontocentral, central, centroparietal, and parietal).
