The auditory cortex hosts network nodes influential for emotion processing: An fMRI study on music-evoked fear and joy.

TL;DR: This study reveals that anterior and posterior regions of auditory association cortex have emotion-characteristic functional connectivity with limbic/paralimbic (insula, cingulate cortex, and striatum), somatosensory, visual, motor-related, and attentional structures and hosts regions that are influential within networks underlying the affective processing of auditory information.
