Journal ArticleDOI
Prefrontal-subcortical pathways mediating successful emotion regulation.
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that right ventrolateral prefrontal region (vlPFC) is involved in both the generation and regulation of emotion through different subcortical pathways, suggesting a general role for this region in appraisal processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The neural bases of distraction and reappraisal
Kateri McRae,Brent L. Hughes,Sita Chopra,John D. E. Gabrieli,James J. Gross,Kevin N. Ochsner +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared distraction and reappraisal and found both similarities and differences between the two forms of emotion regulation and found that both resulted in decreased negative affect, decreased activation in the amygdala, and increased activation in prefrontal and cingulate regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bottom-Up and Top-Down Processes in Emotion Generation Common and Distinct Neural Mechanisms
Kevin N. Ochsner,Rebecca R. Ray,Brent L. Hughes,Kateri McRae,Jeffrey C. Cooper,Jochen Weber,John D. E. Gabrieli,James J. Gross +7 more
TL;DR: Functional magnetic resonance imaging is used to compare the neural correlates of negative emotions generated by the bottom-up perception of aversive images and by the top-down interpretation of neutral images as aversive, finding that both types of responses activated the amygdala.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brain mediators of cardiovascular responses to social threat, Part II: Prefrontal-subcortical pathways and relationship with anxiety
Tor D. Wager,Vanessa A. van Ast,Brent L. Hughes,Matthew Davidson,Martin A. Lindquist,Kevin N. Ochsner +5 more
TL;DR: These data suggest pathways for the translation of social threats into both physiological and experiential responses, and provide targets for future research on the generation and regulation of emotion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural systems supporting the control of affective and cognitive conflicts
TL;DR: The findings that controlling affective and cognitive conflicts depends upon both common and distinct systems have important implications for understanding the organization of control systems in general and their potential dysfunction in clinical disorders.
