This editorial, published in Frontiers in Psychology in 2024, explores the relationship between explicit and implicit emotion processing and the underlying mechanisms involved. It emphasizes the importance of a broader and more inclusive perspective in emotion processing research, particularly in pediatric and clinical populations. The editorial highlights several studies that investigate the interplay between emotion processing and attention, recognition of facial expressions in individuals with anorexia nervosa, social cognition abilities in patients with chronic pain, and the integration of psychological interventions with non-invasive brain stimulation in schizophrenia. The findings suggest that emotions can impact cognitive processes and that methodological choices and individual experiences are influential in emotion processing. The studies presented in this document demonstrate the interdisciplinary nature of emotion research and provide valuable insights into the relationship between emotion and cognitive processes, particularly for pediatric and clinical populations.
