hemisphere/ contralaterality
|
right hemiSPHERE dominant in emotion expression production so...
Left hemiFACE expresses more emotion |
|
perception
|
expression READ/perceived more readily on Right hemiFACE
(on left visual field..goes into right hemisphere) true for chimeric and mirror images |
|
bias in expressions
|
so, left hemiFACE more pronounced than right
deception and nonverbal accents leak more on left hemiface more assymetrical: negative and intended facial expressions |
|
emotion asymmetries
|
positive emotion associated with greater left hemispheric activation (reward-related dopamine)
negative emotion with right hemispheric activation (vigilence/arousal norephinephrine) |
|
valence/motivation confound
|
left frontal= positive, approach
right frontal=negative, withdrawl perfectly confounded, except for anger |
|
anger
|
negative emotion, but approach
if left lateralized, supports approach-avoidance (yes) if right lateralized, supports positive-negative valence |
|
buddhist monks
|
train self to be more left lateralized; compassion meditation
|
|
high road/low road
|
low road=direct from thalamux to amygdala (right), see world we don't
high road=thalamus to visual cortex to amygdala (left), more of world presented at conscious level |
|
fMRI supraliminal
|
conscious anger and fear perception
top-down (hi road) processing of threat (ambiguous), left lateralized more amygdala activation for ambiguous threat |
|
fMRI subliminal
|
nonconscious
bottom-up processing of threat, more attuned to clear threat, right lateralized |
