"... in human aversive conditioning involves the middle frontal gyrus ..."
Behavioral theories and the neurophysiology of reward,
- Annu. Rev. Psychol.
, 2006
"... ■ Abstract The functions of rewards are based primarily on their effects on behavior and are less directly governed by the physics and chemistry of input events as in sensory systems. Therefore, the investigation of neural mechanisms underlying reward functions requires behavioral theories that can ..."

(Amador et al. 2000, Apicella et al. 1991 Contiguity Procedures involving Pavlovian conditioning provide simple paradigms for learning and allow the experimenter to test the basic requirements of contiguity, contingency, and prediction error. Contiguity can be tested by presenting a reward 1.5-2.0 seconds
The detection of contingency and animacy from simple animations in the human brain
- Cerebral Cortex
, 2003
"... Contingencies between objects and people can be mechanical or intentional–social in nature. In this fMRI study we used simplified stimuli to investigate brain regions involved in the detection of mechanical and intentional contingencies. Using a factorial design we manipulated the ‘animacy ’ and ‘co ..."

was animate activated superior parietal networks bilaterally. These activations were unaffected by attention to contingency. Additional regions, the right middle frontal gyrus and left superior temporal sulcus, became activated by the animate–contingent stimuli when subjects specifically attended
Hierarchical processing in spoken language comprehension
- Journal of Neuroscience
, 2003
"... Understanding spoken language requires a complex series of processing stages to translate speech sounds into meaning. In this study, we use functional magnetic resonance imaging to explore the brain regions that are involved in spoken language comprehension, fractionating this system into sound-base ..."

12 listeners using sparse imaging. The blood oxygenation level-dependent signal correlated with intelligibility along the superior and middle temporal gyri in the left hemisphere and in a lessextensive homologous area on the right, the left inferior frontal gyrus (LIFG), and the left hippocampus
See What You Want to See: Motivational Influences on Visual Perception,”
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,
, 2006
"... People's motivational states-their wishes and preferences-influence their processing of visual stimuli. In 5 studies, participants shown an ambiguous figure (e.g., one that could be seen either as the letter B or the number 13) tended to report seeing the interpretation that assigned them to o ..."

involves processes below the level of awareness. Overview of Studies Studies 1 and 2 demonstrated that participants tended to report seeing the interpretation of an ambiguous figure that fit with their wishes and preferences over one that did not. Studies 3 and 4 added implicit measures to ensure
Human Brain Mapping 7:225–233(1999) � Neural Pathways Involved in the Processing of Concrete and Abstract Words
"... Abstract: The purpose of this study was to delineate the neural pathways involved in processing concrete and abstract words using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Word and pseudoword stimuli were presented visually, one at a time, and the participant was required to make a lexical decis ..."

than abstract word stimuli. Analysis of the fMRI data indicated that processing of word stimuli, compared to the baseline condition, was associated with neural activation in the bilateral fusiform gyrus, anterior cingulate, left middle temporal gyrus, right posterior superior temporal gyrus, and left
Positive Facial Affect – An fMRI Study on the Involvement of Insula and Amygdala
"... Imitation of facial expressions engages the putative human mirror neuron system as well as the insula and the amygdala as part of the limbic system. The specific function of the latter two regions during emotional actions is still under debate. The current study investigated brain responses during i ..."

, as well as neutral faces. During imitation, higher right hemispheric activation emerged in the happy compared to the non-emotional condition in the right anterior insula and the right amygdala, in addition to the pre-supplementary motor area, middle temporal gyrus and the inferior frontal gyrus.

Behavioral/Systems/Cognitive Neural Substrates Mediating Human Delay and Trace Fear Conditioning
, 2004
"... Previous functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies with human subjects have explored the neural substrates involved in forming associations in Pavlovian fear conditioning. Most of these studies used delay procedures, in which the conditioned stimulus (CS) and unconditioned stimulus (UCS) ..."

PET imaging of the normal human auditory system: responses
, 2002
"... Abstract The neural mechanisms involved in listening to sentences, and then detecting and verbalizing a specific word are poorly understood, but most likely involve complex neural networks. We used positron emission tomography to identify the areas of the human brain that are activated when young, ..."

listening task, Speech, resulted in bilateral activation of superior and middle temporal gyrus and pre-central gyrus. The Noise and SPIN conditions activated many of the same regions as Speech alone plus additional sites within the cerebellum, thalamus and superior/middle frontal gyri. Comparison
