Lateralized interactive social content and valence processing within the human amygdala
In the past, the amygdala has generally been conceptualized as a fear-processing module. Recently, however, it has been proposed to respond to all stimuli that are relevant with respect to the current needs, goals, and values of an individual. This raises the question of whether the human amygdala may differentiate between separate kinds of relevance. A distinction between emotional (vs. neutra...
متن کاملTrust and valence processing in the amygdala.
In this issue of SCAN, Todorov and Engell report a new study showing not only that human amygdala activation to faces is most strongly modulated by the perceived (un)trustworthiness of faces among a series of 14 personality trait dimensions (such as attractiveness, aggressiveness, intelligence, caring, and so forth), but also that such effects appear to reflect a more general response to negati...

UNLABELLED Although the amygdala is a major locus for hedonic processing, how it encodes valence information is poorly understood. Given the hedonic potency of odor stimuli and the amygdala's anatomical proximity to the peripheral olfactory system, we combined high-resolution fMRI with pattern-based multivariate techniques to examine how valence information is encoded in the amygdala. Ten human...

73 Processing of Emotional and Social Information by the Human Amygdala
Studies in animals have implicated the amygdala in social and emotional information processing. Within the past decade, the role of this structure has also been investigated in hwnans, using a variety of techniques. Perhaps best explored is its function in social judgments about facial expressions, the focus of this review. Lesion studies, electrophysiology, and functional imaging have all been...
