Recent theoretical and empirical work has highlighted the role of domain-general, large-
scale brain networks in generating emotional experiences. These networks are …

Viewing emotional pictures is associated with heightened perception and attention, indexed
by a relative increase in visual cortical activity. Visual cortical modulation by emotion is …

Sharing others' emotional states may facilitate understanding their intentions and actions.
Here we show that networks of brain areas “tick together” in participants who are viewing …

While naturalistic stimuli, such as movies, better represent the complexity of the real world
and are perhaps crucial to understanding the dynamics of emotion processing, there is …

Neuroimaging studies have made substantial progress in elucidating the neural bases of
emotion. However, few studies to date have directly addressed the subject-specific, time …

To investigate the neural systems that contribute to the formation of complex, self-relevant
emotional memories, dedicated fans of rival college basketball teams watched a competitive …

In recent years, a large number of human studies have investigated large-scale network
properties of the brain, typically during the resting state. A critical gap in the knowledge base …

The question of how affective processing is organized in the brain is still a matter of
controversial discussions. Based on previous initial evidence, several suggestions have …

Emotional arousal is a complex state recruiting distributed cortical and subcortical structures,
in which the amygdala and insula play an important role. Although previous neuroimaging …

The ability to volitionally regulate emotions is critical to health and well-being. While patterns
of neural activation during emotion regulation have been well characterized, patterns of …
