Emotions important for survival and social interaction have received wide and deep investigations. The application of the fMRI technique into emotion processing has obtained overwhelming achievements with respect to the localization of emotion processes. The ERP method, which possesses highly temporal resolution compared to fMRI, can be employed to investigate the time course of emotion processing. The emotional modulation of the ERP component has been verified across numerous researches. Emotions, described as dynamically developing along with the growing age, have the possibility to be enhanced through learning (or training) or to be damaged due to disturbances in growth, which is underlain by the neural plasticity of emotion-relevant nervous systems. And mood disorders with typical symptoms of emotion discordance probably have been caused by the dysfunctional neural plasticity.
情绪对于生存和社会交往至关重要，因此受到了广泛而深入的研究。功能磁共振成像（fMRI）技术在情绪处理的定位方面取得了巨大的成果。与 fMRI 相比，事件相关电位（ERP）方法具有更高的时间分辨率，可用于研究情绪处理的时间过程。许多研究已经验证了 ERP 成分的情绪调节。情绪被描述为随着年龄的增长而动态发展的，它可以通过学习（或训练）得到增强，也可能因为情绪相关神经系统的生长障碍而受到损害，这种损害是由情绪相关神经系统的神经可塑性引起的。情绪障碍伴有典型的情绪失调症状，可能就是由于神经可塑性的功能障碍所致。
