Recent advances in affective science have provided new toolswith which to address these age-old questions. The past few decades have witnessed an explosion of research on emotion, accompanied by new theories, such as evolutionary-based analyses of emotion, as well as methods such as anatomically based systems for coding facial expressive behavior and brain imaging strategies. These developments have provided newtools with which to explore the role that emotions play in mental health and illness. This volume synthesizes theoretical and methodological developments in affective science and highlights their potential application to psychopathology. It also highlights exemplary work that illustrates the importance of transferring basic research into the clinicalarea and considers the potential payoffs of using affective science to conceptualize and treat major mental disorders.
