先前的研究表明杏仁核是注意力情绪调节的关键神经基质。然而,最近的一项案例研究表明,杏仁核可能不是所有类型的情绪-注意力相互作用所必需的。为了验证这一假设,我们评估了单侧杏仁核病变患者、匹配对照组和药物匹配的杏仁核完整癫痫患者的视觉搜索表现。所有参与者都完成了一个视觉搜索任务,包括以下试验:(1)情感目标嵌入中性干扰物中,(2)中性目标嵌入情感干扰物中,或(3)中性目标嵌入中性干扰物中。所有参与者,包括那些杏仁核损伤,检测情感目标比中性目标更有效。这些数据表明,杏仁核不是情绪引导的视觉搜索所必需的,并表明杏仁核以外的其他机制有助于引导对威胁性刺激的注意力。
Previous research has indicated that the amygdala is a critical neural substrate of the emotional modulation of attention. However, a recent case-study suggests that the amygdala may not be essential for all types of emotion-attention interactions. In order to test this hypothesis, we assessed the visual-search performance of patients with unilateral amygdala lesions, matched controls, and medication-matched epilepsy patients with intact amygdalae. All participants completed a visual-search task consisting of trials in which (1) an emotional target was embedded amongst neutral distractors, (2) a neutral target was embedded amongst emotional distractors, or (3) a neutral target was embedded amongst neutral distractors. All participant groups, including those with amygdala lesions, detected emotional targets more efficiently than neutral targets. These data indicate that the amygdala is not necessary for emotion-guided visual search and suggest that other mechanisms beyond the amygdala help guide attention toward threatening stimuli.
