TLDR
The results suggest that hypnosis may enhance self-monitoring processes to allow internal representations generated by the suggestion to guide behavior but does not act through direct motor inhibition.About:

Neurofeedback: A promising tool for the self-regulation of emotion networks
TL;DR: The findings demonstrate the feasibility of fMRI-based neurofeedback of emotion networks and suggest a possible development into a therapeutic tool.
Journal ArticleDOI
Motor inhibition in hysterical conversion paralysis
TL;DR: The results suggest that conversion symptoms do not act through cognitive inhibitory circuits, but involve selective activations in midline brain regions associated with self-related representations and emotion regulation.

Music and emotions: from enchantment to entrainment
Patrik Vuilleumier,Wiebke Trost +1 more
TL;DR: The similarities and differences in the neural substrates underlying these “complex” music‐evoked emotions relative to other more “basic” emotional experiences are reviewed, suggesting that these emotions emerge through a combination of activation in emotional and motivational brain systems that confer its valence to music.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fear and stop: A role for the amygdala in motor inhibition by emotional signals
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the amygdala may not only promote protective motor reactions in emotionally-significant contexts but also influence the execution of ongoing actions by modulating brain circuits involved in motor control, so as to afford quick and adaptive changes in current behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dissociation in hysteria and hypnosis: evidence from cognitive neuroscience
TL;DR: It is found that ‘symptom’ presentation, whether clinically diagnosed or simulated using hypnosis, is associated with increases in prefrontal cortex activity suggesting that intervention by the executive system in both automatic and voluntary cognitive processing is common to both hysteria and hypnosis.

Control of goal-directed and stimulus-driven attention in the brain
TL;DR: Evidence for partially segregated networks of brain areas that carry out different attentional functions is reviewed, finding that one system is involved in preparing and applying goal-directed selection for stimuli and responses, and the other is specialized for the detection of behaviourally relevant stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI
An integrative theory of prefrontal cortex function
Earl K. Miller,Jonathan D. Cohen +1 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that cognitive control stems from the active maintenance of patterns of activity in the prefrontal cortex that represent goals and the means to achieve them, which provide bias signals to other brain structures whose net effect is to guide the flow of activity along neural pathways that establish the proper mappings between inputs, internal states, and outputs needed to perform a given task.

A default mode of brain function.
Marcus E. Raichle,Ann Mary MacLeod,Abraham Z. Snyder,William J. Powers,Debra A. Gusnard,Gordon L. Shulman +5 more
TL;DR: A baseline state of the normal adult human brain in terms of the brain oxygen extraction fraction or OEF is identified, suggesting the existence of an organized, baseline default mode of brain function that is suspended during specific goal-directed behaviors.
Journal ArticleDOI
The precuneus: a review of its functional anatomy and behavioural correlates.
TL;DR: A useful conceptual framework is provided for matching the functional imaging findings with the specific role(s) played by this structure in the higher-order cognitive functions in which it has been implicated, and activation patterns appear to converge with anatomical and connectivity data in providing preliminary evidence for a functional subdivision within the precuneus.

The Reorienting System of the Human Brain: From Environment to Theory of Mind
TL;DR: While originally conceptualized as a system for redirecting attention from one object to another, recent evidence suggests a more general role in switching between networks, which may explain recent evidence of its involvement in functions such as social cognition.
