Effects of Attention and Emotion on Face Processing in the Human Brain An Event-Related fMRI Study

View on Elsevier (opens in a new tab)

Distinct spatial frequency sensitivities for processing faces and emotional expressions

TLDR
An activation of pulvinar and superior colliculus by fearful expressions occurred specifically with low-frequency faces, suggesting that these subcortical pathways may provide coarse fear-related inputs to the amygdala.

Distant influences of amygdala lesion on visual cortical activation during emotional face processing

TLDR
The data show that combining the fMRI and lesion approaches can help reveal the source of functional modulatory influences between distant but interconnected brain regions.

Amygdala–Hippocampal Involvement in Human Aversive Trace Conditioning Revealed through Event-Related Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging

TLDR
An additional activation of anterior hippocampus in the present experiment supports a view that its role in trace conditioning is to maintain a memory trace between the offset of the CS+ and the delayed onset of the US to enable associative learning in Trace conditioning.

An fMRI study of intentional and unintentional (embarrassing) violations of social norms.

TLDR
The data suggest that social behavioural problems in patients with frontal lobe lesions or fronto-temporal dementia may be a consequence of dysfunction within the systems identified in light of their possible role in processing whether particular social behaviours are, or are not, appropriate.
