signals of danger. We recorded blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) activity using fMRI
and simultaneous skin conductance measures of autonomic arousal in healthy subjects.
Distinct response profiles were elicited for fear (enhanced arousal with amygdala activity),
anger (rapid onset, slow recovery arousal responses with anterior cingulate) and disgust
(delayed arousal responses with insula and basal ganglia activity). The findings suggest that …
