Negative mental imagery in public speaking anxiety: Forming cognitive resistance by taxing visuospatial working memory (Journal of Behavior Therapy and Experimental Psychiatry)
This study tested eye movement techniques in relation to negative imagery in social anxiety, and found reduced image vividness was associated with reduced anxiety in response to an imagined, novel public speaking scenario.
Neuropsychological and Physiological Outcomes Pre- and Post-EMDR Therapy for a Woman With PTSD: A Case Study (Journal of EMDR Practice and Research)
Comprehensive literature review on the neurocognitive impact of PTSD and reports on a quantitative single-case study.
Neural processing of emotions in traumatized children treated with eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy: AÂ hdEEGÂ study (Frontiers in Psychology)
High density electroencephalography (hdEEG) was used to investigate the effects of EMDR on brain responses to adults’ emotions on children with histories of early maltreatment.
Neurobiological response to EMDR therapy in clients with different psychological traumas (Frontiers in Psychology)
This study used electroencephalography (EEG) monitoring to view neurobiological differences between groups of clients with different trauma histories during the reliving of the traumatic event.

Facilitating access to emotions: Neural signature of EMDR stimulation (PLoS ONE)
This study examined whether there is increased activation of the amygdala during bilateral stimulation (BLS) in EMDR therapy.
Neurophysiological correlates of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing session: Preliminary evidence for traumatic memories integration (Clinical Physiology and Functional Imaging)
This study suggested that EMDR leads to an integration of dissociated aspects of traumatic memories and, consequently, a decrease of hyperarousal symptoms.
