Age-Related Differences in the Late Positive Potential during Emotion Regulation between Adolescents and Adults

Abstract The late positive potential (LPP) has been well documented in predicting the effect of emotion regulation in previous developmental literature. However, few studies have examined age-related changes in emotion regulation from adolescence to adulthood using this biomarker. To test this, Reac...
