Arousal-biased competition in perception and memory (2011, positive): “…into the general mechanisms of arousal and memory has focused on the key role of the amygdala in enhancing perception and memory of emotionally arousing stimuli (for reviews, see LaBar & Cabeza, 2006; McGaugh, 2004; Murty, Ritchey, Adcock, & LaBar, 2010; Payne & Kensinger, 2010; Phelps, 2004).”
The Influences of Emotion on Learning and Memory (2017, background): “Numerous studies have reported that human cognitive processes are affected by emotions, including attention (Vuilleumier, 2005), learning and memory (Phelps, 2004; Um et al., 2012), reasoning (Jung et al., 2014), and problem-solving (Isen et al., 1987).”
NEURAL CORRELATES OF EMOTIONAL MEMORIES: A REVIEW OF EVIDENCE FROM BRAIN IMAGING STUDIES (2012, background): “Given its multiple connections with core memory structures, as well as with numerous cortical and subcortical regions involved in diverse functions such as perception, emotion, elaborative cognitive processes and social cognition (see reviews by Dolcos & Denkova, 2008; Dolcos, Iordan, & Dolcos, 2011”
A Review of Adversity, The Amygdala and the Hippocampus: A Consideration of Developmental Timing (2009, positive): “Secondly, the amygdala and hippocampus co-modulate each other such that the amygdala can infl uence hippocampally- mediated memory formation and the hippocampus infl uences amygdala response when emotional stimuli are encountered (Phelps, 2004).”
Memory for Specific Visual Details can be Enhanced by Negative Arousing Content. (2006, background): “Furthermore, individuals often will claim that they vividly remember more emotional than neutral items even when there is no corresponding enhancement in old–new discrimination for the emotional items (Ochsner, 2000; Sharot, Delgado, & Phelps, 2004).”
Emotion and cognition: insights from studies of the human amygdala. (2006, background): “Olsson & Phelps (2004) exposed subjects to classical fear conditioning and instructed fear.”
Remembering the Details: Effects of Emotion (2009, background): “Though there has been extensive evidence for arousal-mediated enhancement of memory (e.g., McGaugh, 2004; Phelps, 2004), with positive and negative arousing events more likely to be remembered than nonarousing ones, when it comes to remembering the details of emotional events, there appear to be…”
The Role of Sleep in Cognition and Emotion (2009, background): “In those that had slept, both positive and negative stimuli were associated with superior retention levels relative to the neutral condition, consistent with the notion that emotion facilitates memory encoding (Phelps 2004).”
The Temporal Dynamics Model of Emotional Memory Processing: A Synthesis on the Neurobiological Basis of Stress-Induced Amnesia, Flashbulb and Traumatic Memories, and the Yerkes-Dodson Law (2007, background): “[359]; Cahill and van Stegeren [360]) and discussion (Phelps [361]) of the differential roles of the hippocampal versus amygdala in emotional memory processing.”
Cytoarchitectonic mapping of the human amygdala, hippocampal region and entorhinal cortex: intersubject variability and probability maps (2005, background): “The numerous connections of the amygdala are the structural basis of a large variety of cognitive functions and affective behaviours such as defence, escape, pain, motivation, emotional discrimination, learning and memory (Phelps 2004; Swanson and Petrovich 1998; Ledoux 2000; Aggleton 2000).”
A validated network of effective amygdala connectivity (2007, methodology): “Through increased interactions during observation of emotional stimuli, the amygdala–hippocampal connection has been observed to be enhanced during both memory encoding and consolidation in both animal models (McGaugh, 2000; McGaugh and Roozendaal, 2002) and human studies (Dolcos et al., 2004; Phelp”
Amygdala-frontal connectivity during emotion regulation. (2007, background): “…as demonstrated by both animal and human lesion studies (Aggleton, 1993; Angrilli et al., 1996; Davis and Whalen, 2001; Adolphs, 2002; Amaral et al., 2003; Phelps, 2004), and human imaging studies (Phan et al., 2002; Murphy et al., 2003; Phillips et al., 2003a; Wager et al., 2003; Zald, 2003).”
Extinction learning in humans: role of the amygdala and vmPFC. (2004, background): “No effects were found for fear acquisi-findings from nonhuman animals (Phelps, 2004).”
The roles of the amygdala in the affective regulation of body, brain, and behaviour (2010, background): “First, it allows affective reactions taking place withing Amg to contribute to the recall of memories stored within the Hip or within the areas with which the current affective context has been associated during consolidation (LaBar and Cabeza, 2006; Phelps, 2004).”
Four Ways of Considering Emotion in Cognitive Load Theory (2019, positive): “This is thought to enhance later perception and lead to enhanced encoding for emotional events, but also facilitates attention on the emotional event (Phelps 2004).”
