Brain, 10/27/09
Cristinzio C et al. – The results confirm a critical role for the amygdala in self–relevance appraisal, showing an interaction between gaze and emotion in healthy controls, a trend for such interaction in left–damaged patients but not in right–damaged patients. Impaired expression recognition was generally more severe for fear, but with a greater deficit for right versus left damage. These findings do not only provide new insights on human amygdala function, but may also help design novel neuropsychological tests sensitive to amygdala dysfunction in various patient populations.
