| Question | Answer |
| Unconscious interference | Processes outside of awareness, nonconscious brain processes |
| Six basic emotions | Anger, fear, disgust, surprise, happiness, sadness. |
| Affect | Conscious subjective feeling about a stimulus |
| Components of emotion | Physiology, distinctive motor behavior, self-reported cognition, unconscious behavior |
| Bard | Decorticated dogs showed rage behavior, emotional responses depend on the diencephalon |
| Early studies | Cortex inhibited emotional responses of the thalamus and hypothalamus |
| Papez | Limbic lobe is the basis of emotion, limbic structures act on the hypothalamus to produce emotional states |
| Klüver-Bucy Syndrome | Results from bilateral removal of the amygdala and inferior temporal cortex |
| Symptoms of Klüver-Bucy Syndrome | Tameness and loss of fear, autoerotic, activity, hypermetamorphosis, examination of objects by mouth, visual agnosia |
| Production of affective behaviour | Left side bias in production of facial expressions of emotion, RH specialization for interpreting nonverbal behavior |
| Vision and perceiving relevant stimuli | Left visual field superiority in the identification of facial affect, films are more unpleasant and produce greater ANS activation when presented to the right hemisphere |
| Audition and perception of relevant stimuli | Left ear advantage for the identification of emotional tone of voice |
| Limbic system | Amygdala and prefrontal cortex especially important for emotion |
| Amygdala | Input from all sensory systems, multimodal cells, sensitive to threatening or dangerous stimuli |
| Somatic marker hypothesis | Confronted with a stimulus, the brain and body change, reductions in body reactions lead to reduced intensity of emotion, fundamental to survival |
| Cognitive emotional interactions | Emotion enhances survival and is interrelated with cognition, uses fear conditioning as a model system, circuits in the amygdala interact with cortical circuits to influence affective behavior |
| RH cognitive asymmetry and emotion | Right hemisphere more engaged in automatic components of emotion - generates feelings. |
| LH cognitive asymmetry and emotion | Plays a role in the cognitive control of emotion - interprets feelings. |
| LH lesions and emotions | Lead to flattened mood |
| Anterior lesions and emotions | Reduce facial expressions |
| Left frontal lesions and emotion | Decrease talking |
| RH lesions | Creates aprosodia, deficits in comprehension and judgment of emotion. |
| Aprosodia | Inability of a person to properly convey or interpret emotional tone |
| Right frontal lobe lesions | Produce impairments in understanding and using humor, impaired on facial expression tests |
| Right temporal lobe personality | Obsessive |
| Left temporal lobe personality | Personal destiny |
| Understanding other's actions | Biological motion and mirror neurons |
| Biological motion | Through cells of the STS. |
| Mirror neurons | Found in the premotor cortex |
| Theory of mind | Ability to attribute mental states to self and others |
| Neural regions active during social judgment | Frontal lobe, amygdala, STS cortex |
| Generation of the self | Right frontoparietal network and cortical midline network |
| Right frontoparietal network | Recognition of our own face. |
| Cortical midline network | Monitor psychological states in others and the self |
