The Neurobehavioral Nature of Fishes and the Question of Awareness and Pain (2002, background): “Also, we may or may not be consciously aware of the provocative environmental events that constitute the stressors, because some emotionally provocative types of stimuli are processed subcortically without our awareness (Dolan, 2000; LeDoux, 1996; Öhman et al., 2000).”
Affect and action: Towards an event-coding account (2007, background): “The idea that affective processes can be triggered automatically gains much in plausibility when viewed from an evolutionary perspective (LeDoux, 1996; Öhman, Flykt, & Lundqvist, 2000, Zajonc, 1980).”
Fears, phobias, and preparedness: toward an evolved module of fear and fear learning. (2001, background): “Fear is perhaps most closely related to a conglomerate of defensive responding that includes heart rate acceleration, increased activity in the corrugator muscle of the face, and potentiation of the startle reflex as the most important components (Lang et al., 1997; Ohman, Hamm, & Hugdahl, 2000).”
Measuring emotional processes in animals: the utility of a cognitive approach. (2005, unknown): “appraisal of the object) than pure affective or mood states, and may also incorporate actions or ‘action tendencies’ [25-26] towards the object concerned (e.”
The selective processing of briefly presented affective pictures: an ERP analysis. (2004, background): “Indeed, it is proposed that the main difference in network organization between affective and nonaffective representations involves subcortical circuits, allowing for multiple feedforward and feedback projections at various neural levels (Lang et al., 1997; Öhman et al., 2000).”
Danger stereotypes predict racially biased attentional allocation (2008, background): “sponse to outgroup members (see Öhman & Mineka, 2001; Öhman et al., 2000).”
The facilitated processing of threatening faces: an ERP analysis. (2004, background): “Overall, these findings are consistent with a scenario in which threatening stimuli are already tagged for further processing during sensory encoding, presumably on the basis of superficial stimulus analysis (cf. Öhman et al., 2000).”
Electrophysiological correlates of rapid spatial orienting towards fearful faces. (2004, unknown): “Based on the idea that threat-related stimuli may capture attention in an involuntary and exogenous way (Öhman et al., 1999), we recorded EEG in normal viewers to examine on a millisecond basis the temporal dynamic of spatial attention in a covert orienting paradigm (Mangun, 1995; Rugg and Coles, 19”
The role of the amygdala in human fear: automatic detection of threat. (2005, background): “, 2003), as well as by our group (Öhman et al., 2001; Öhman and Mineka, 2001; Carlsson et al., 2004), strongly support that the amygdala can be automatically activated by emotional stimuli. This, in turn, implies that attention to the eliciting stimulus is not necessary. As reviewed above, behaviora”
