Abstract
The goal of this research is to understand the interaction of implicit and explicit psychological processes in dealing with
emotional distractions and meta-cognitive control of such distractions. The questions are how emotional and meta-cognitive
processes can be separated into implicit and explicit components, and how such a separation can be utilized to improve self-regulation
of emotion, which can have significant theoretical and practical implications.
