- Vol. 21, Iss: 5, pp 357-371
TLDR
The model clarifies why the impact of emotion is wide-ranging, and how emotion is interlocked with perception, cognition, motivation, and action.

The central extended amygdala in fear and anxiety: Closing the gap between mechanistic and neuroimaging research.

TL;DR: This work opens the door to discovering the mechanisms underlying neuroimaging measures linked to pathological fear and anxiety, to understanding how the Ce and BST interact with one another and with distal brain regions to govern defensive responses to threat, and to developing improved intervention strategies.

Anxiety and Threat-Related Attention: Cognitive-Motivational Framework and Treatment.

TL;DR: An updated cognitive-motivational framework is presented, integrating proposals from cognitive models of anxiety and attention, as well as evidence of ABs, which considers ABM training as cognitive skill training.
Journal ArticleDOI

Basic Emotions in Human Neuroscience: Neuroimaging and Beyond

TL;DR: Evidence in favor of the neurobiological underpinnings of basic emotions outweighs dismissive approaches, and it is proposed that the structure-function relationship between brain and emotions is better described in terms of pluripotentiality.

Parallel Organization of Functionally Segregated Circuits Linking Basal Ganglia and Cortex

TL;DR: The basal ganglia serve primarily to integrate diverse inputs from the entire cerebral cortex and to "funnel" these influences, via the ventrolateral thalamus, to the motor cortex.

A Set of Measures of Centrality Based on Betweenness

TL;DR: A family of new measures of point and graph centrality based on early intuitions of Bavelas (1948) is introduced in this paper, which define centrality in terms of the degree to which a point falls on the shortest path between others and there fore has a potential for control of communication.

The organization of the human cerebral cortex estimated by intrinsic functional connectivity

TL;DR: In this paper, the organization of networks in the human cerebrum was explored using resting-state functional connectivity MRI data from 1,000 subjects and a clustering approach was employed to identify and replicate networks of functionally coupled regions across the cerebral cortex.

Uncovering the overlapping community structure of complex networks in nature and society

TL;DR: After defining a set of new characteristic quantities for the statistics of communities, this work applies an efficient technique for exploring overlapping communities on a large scale and finds that overlaps are significant, and the distributions introduced reveal universal features of networks.
