Personal space regulation by the human amygdala (2009)

Kennedy, Daniel P., Gläscher, Jan, Tyszka, J. Michael, Adolphs, Ralph

The amygdala plays key roles in emotion and social cognition, but how this translates to face-to-face interactions involving real people remains unknown. We found that an individual with complete...

Structure–function relationships in the processing of regret in the orbitofrontal cortex (2009)

Sommer, Tobias, Peters, Jan, Gläscher, Jan, Büchel, Christian

The influence of counterfactual thinking and regret on choice behavior has been widely acknowledged in economic science (Bell in Oper Res 30:961–981, 1982; Kahneman and Tversky in Judgment under...

Lesion mapping of cognitive abilities linked to intelligence (2009)

Gläscher, Jan, Tranel, Daniel, Paul, Lynn K., Rudrauf, David, Rorden, Chris, Hornaday, Amanda, ...

The Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) assesses a wide range of cognitive abilities and impairments. Factor analyses have documented four underlying indices that jointly comprise intelligence...

Visualization of group inference data in functional neuroimaging (2009)

Gläscher, Jan

While thresholded statistical parametric maps can convey an accurate account for the location and spatial extent of an effect in functional neuroimaging studies, their use is somewhat limited for...

Determining a Role for Ventromedial Prefrontal Cortex in Encoding Action-Based Value Signals During Reward-Related Decision Making (2009)

Gläscher, Jan, Hampton, Alan N., O'Doherty, John P.

Considerable evidence has emerged to implicate ventromedial prefrontal cortex in encoding expectations of future reward during value-based decision making. However, the nature of the learned...

Behavioral/Systems/Cognitive Processing of the Arousal of Subliminal and Supraliminal Emotional Stimuli by the Human Amygdala (2008)

Jan Gläscher, Ralph Adolphs

The amygdala is known to play an important role in conscious and unconscious processing of emotional and highly arousing stimuli. Neuroanatomical evidence suggests that the amygdala participates in...

Emotional enhancement effect of memory: Removing the influence of cognitive factors (2008)

Sommer, Tobias, Gläscher, Jan, Moritz, Steffen, Büchel, Christian

According to the modulation hypothesis, arousal is the crucial factor in the emotional enhancement of memory (EEM). However, the multifactor theory of the EEM recently proposed that cognitive...

Dissociable contributions within the medial temporal lobe to encoding of object-location associations (2005)

Sommer, Tobias, Rose, Michael, Gläscher, Jan, Wolbers, Thomas, Büchel, Christian

The crucial role of the medial temporal lobe (MTL) in episodic memory is well established. Although there is little doubt that its anatomical subregions—the hippocampus, peri-, entorhinal and...

Dissociable contributions within the medial temporal lobe to encoding of object-location associations (2005)

Sommer, Tobias, Rose, Michael, Gläscher, Jan, Wolbers, Thomas, Büchel, Christian

The crucial role of the medial temporal lobe (MTL) in episodic memory is well established. Although there is little doubt that its anatomical subregions—the hippocampus, peri-, entorhinal and...

Elevated responses to constant facial emotions in different faces in the human amygdala: an fMRI study of facial identity and expression (2004)

Gläscher, Jan, Tüscher, Oliver, Weiller, Cornelius, Büchel, Christian

Abstract Background Human faces provide important signals in social interactions by inferring two main types of information, individual identity and emotional expression. The ability to readily...

Gene–gene interaction associated with neural reward sensitivity

Yacubian, Juliana, Sommer, Tobias, Schroeder, Katrin, Gläscher, Jan, Kalisch, Raffael, Leuenberger, Boris, ...

Reward processing depends on dopaminergic neurotransmission and is modulated by factors affecting dopamine (DA) reuptake and degradation. We used fMRI and a guessing task sensitive to reward-related...

Neural Dynamics of Learning Sound—Action Associations

McNamara, Adam, Buccino, Giovanni, Menz, Mareike M., Gläscher, Jan, Wolbers, Thomas, Baumgärtner, Annette, ...

A motor component is pre-requisite to any communicative act as one must inherently move to communicate. To learn to make a communicative act, the brain must be able to dynamically associate arbitrary...
