Experimental design of the implicit emotional processing with LDT. Each trial started with a fixation cross that was presented for 50 ms. Subsequently an emotional prime (the adjusted eye region of the Ekman-faces) was displayed for 150 ms followed by a break of 50 ms. Finally, the target stimulus was presented. The participants were supposed to decide as fast as possible whether this target was a real German word or a pseudo-word and to press the corresponding button on the mouse within 3000 ms. After this time interval the next trial started.
