Freezing revisited: coordinated autonomic and central optimization of threat coping
Karin Roelofs,Peter Dayan +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors propose that the particular somatic and cognitive characteristics of freezing help to conceal overt responses, while optimizing sensory processing and action preparation, which has implications for its role in decision-making under threat and for psychopathology.

Respiratory sinus arrhythmia in response to fear‐relevant and fear‐irrelevant stimuli
TL;DR: The main finding showed that RSA-magnitude (high frequency power) was inversely related to emotional valence: lowest magnitudes were found in response to positive films, and highest magnitude to negative films.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nightmares do result in psychophysiological arousal: A multimeasure ambulatory assessment study.
TL;DR: Ambulatory polysomnography demonstrates that nightmares are accompanied by increased autonomic activation, and supports the notion of impaired self-reported sleep quality caused by one's autonomic response rather than altered sleep pattern.

One-year follow-up of basic body awareness therapy in patients with posttraumatic stress disorder. A small intervention study of effects on movement quality, PTSD symptoms, and movement experiences
TL;DR: It is suggested that BBAT in addition to TAU can be a viable physiotherapeutic treatment for patients with PTSD and this knowledge may influence future treatment strategies for Patients with PTSD.

Orienting in a defensive world: Mammalian modifications of our evolutionary heritage. A Polyvagal Theory
TL;DR: The Polyvagal Theory is introduced to explain the different functions of the two primary medullary source nuclei of the vagus and speculates that mammalian, but not reptilian, brainstem organization is characterized by a ventral vagal complex related to processes associated with attention, motion, emotion, and communication.

Neuroendocrine perspectives on social attachment and love
TL;DR: A review of existing behavioral and neuroendocrine perspectives on social attachment and love reveals a recurrent association between high levels of activity in the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis and the subsequent expression of social behaviors and attachments.
Journal ArticleDOI
The organization of noradrenergic pathways from the brainstem to the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei in the rat
TL;DR: The autoradiographic material, and additional double-labeling experiments, were used to identify and to characterize projections that interconnect the A1, A2 and A6 regions, as well as possible projections from these cell groups to the spinal cord.
