The processing of information is not solely a cognitive process or a simple brain function, but is a complex phenomenon that has only been partially studied and understood. Information processing models mostly come from cognitive neuroscience. The field of emotional regulation. which in recent years has experienced an exponential growth, has offered very interesting data and is generating diverse theoretical developments.
This area can provide relevant ideas to a greater understanding of the underlying mechanisms of post-traumatic symptoms and EMDR's mechanism of action in the reprocessing of traumatic memories. Throughout this book many questions and some possible answers about different aspects related to emotional processing will be raised, such as (1) whether all emotions evolve in the same way with processing.
(2) what role the intensity of emotion has in working with EMDR, (3) whether some emotional regulation mechanisms can facilitate or hinder the processing of memories, and (4) whether reprocessing certain experiences can modify emotional regulation functioning. Clinical reflections are linked with research in the field of emotion, in order to facilitate a broader analysis of all these aspects.
