The amygdala supports the cognitive function that allows one to process emotions (Grieve‚ 2010). The frontal lobe and amygdala are but two of the many areas in the brain that support

sensation of fear is related to 2 parts of the brain‚ the prefrontal cortex and the amygdala. The prefrontal cortex is the body’s "hub of safety" if you will. It receives stimuli and determines whether it’s potentially dangerous‚ and sends signals to different parts of the brain to release adrenaline‚ hence the term "adrenaline junkie". This release of adrenaline is called the "fight or flight response". The amygdala‚ part of the limbic system‚ controls all strong emotions. It is what stores strong

According to Addotta (2006)‚ anger comes from the reptilian part of our body known as the amygdala. The progression of anger to rage (愤怒/疯狂) is normally stopped before getting out of control. When the amygdala initiates the emotion of anger‚ the prefrontal cortex can result in violent

With an MRI scan‚ Corkin recognized that there was damage to the hippocampus‚ amygdala‚ and areas nearby. She investigated the effects of biological factors on behavior and built a correlation between certain brain areas and memory. This indicated that hippocampus plays a

The nervous system consists of the central nervous system (CNS)‚ made up of the brain and the spinal cord‚ and the peripheral nervous system (PNS)‚ the neurons that link the CNS to our skin‚ muscles‚ and glands.

I’m also curious if her seizures are in her temporal lobe or extending down into the amygdala and limbic structures like he had. This also raises a lot of more questions for me about epilepsy and memory and I just want to be able to learn in all and take it all in to get a better understand of people and their

The amygdala is found in the center of the brain towards the eyes. When a part of the brain is closer to the eyes it is usually used to process and act on what is seen. If a sociopath is lacking both the frontal lobe and the amygdala it can seem like the person does not have a “filter”. Meaning that they don’t process what they are saying‚ they simply say anything
