Journal ArticleDOI
Neural systems supporting interoceptive awareness.
TL;DR: In right anterior insular/opercular cortex, neural activity predicted subjects' accuracy in the heartbeat detection task and local gray matter volume correlated with both interoceptive accuracy and subjective ratings of visceral awareness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fears, phobias and preparedness: Toward an evolved module of fear and fear learning
Arne Öhman,Susan Mineka +1 more
TL;DR: The fear module is assumed to mediate an emotional level of fear learning that is relatively independent and dissociable from cognitive learning of stimulus relationships.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emotion drives attention: detecting the snake in the grass.
TL;DR: This paper found that participants specifically fearful of snakes but not spiders (or vice versa) showed facilitated search for the feared objects but did not differ from controls in search for nonfeared fear-relevant or fear-irrelevant, targets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conscious and unconscious emotional learning in the human amygdala
TL;DR: The results indicate that the human amygdala can discriminate between stimuli solely on the basis of their acquired behavioural significance, and second, this response is lateralized according to the subjects' level of awareness of the stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI
The face in the crowd revisited: a threat advantage with schematic stimuli.
TL;DR: Threatening angry faces were more quickly and accurately detected than were other negative faces (sad or "scheming"), which suggests that the threat advantage can be attributed to threat rather than to the negative valence or the uniqueness of the target display.
