Journal ArticleDOI
Lesions of the human amygdala impair enhanced perception of emotionally salient events
TL;DR: Under conditions of limited attention for normal perceptual awareness, it is shown that healthy observers demonstrate robust benefits for the perception of verbal stimuli of aversive content compared with stimuli of neutral content.
Journal ArticleDOI
Attending to the present: mindfulness meditation reveals distinct neural modes of self-reference
Norman A. S. Farb,Zindel V. Segal,Helen S. Mayberg,Jim Bean,Deborah McKeon,Zainab Fatima,Adam K. Anderson +6 more
TL;DR: A fundamental neural dissociation is suggested between two distinct forms of self-awareness that are habitually integrated but can be dissociated through attentional training: the self across time and in the present moment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dissociated neural representations of intensity and valence in human olfaction
Adam K. Anderson,Kalina Christoff,Iris Stappen,D. Panitz,Dara G. Ghahremani,Gary H. Glover,John D. E. Gabrieli,Noam Sobel +7 more
TL;DR: Using event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), it is found amygdala activation to be associated with intensity, and not valence, of odors, suggesting that the affective representations of intensity and valence draw upon dissociable neural substrates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Positive affect increases the breadth of attentional selection
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that positive states, by loosening the reins on inhibitory control, result in a fundamental change in the breadth of attentional allocation to both external visual and internal conceptual space.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recognition of facial emotion in nine individuals with bilateral amygdala damage.
Ralph Adolphs,Daniel Tranel,Stephan Hamann,Andrew W. Young,Andrew J. Calder,Elizabeth A. Phelps,Adam K. Anderson,Grace K. Lee,Antonio R. Damasio +8 more
TL;DR: The recognition of emotional facial expressions in nine subjects with bilateral amygdala damage is reported, using a sensitive and quantitative assessment, to show that the amygdala plays an important role in triggering knowledge related to threat and danger signaled by facial expressions.
