Citations in the corpus

• Statistical localization of human olfactory cortex (2013, background): “It is now increasingly thought of as a chemosensory convergence zone involved in flavor perception (de Araujo et al., 2003; Lundstrom et al., 2011; Rolls et al., 2003; Seo and Hummel, 2011).”
• Social and monetary reward learning engage overlapping neural substrates. (2012, background): “…cortex (OFC) correlates with behavioral measures of experienced utility for a wide variety of social and non-social reward modalities (Blood and Zatorre, 2001; Small et al., 2001, 2003; de Araujo et al., 2003; McClure et al., 2003; Kringelbach, 2005; Plassmann et al., 2008; Smith et al., 2010).”
• Hedonic Hotspots: Generating Sensory Pleasure in the Brain (2007, positive): “In humans the orbitofrontal cortex, particularly its medial region, is activated by pleasant tastes and odors, pleasant touch sensations, and other pleasant stimuli (de Araujo et al., 2003; Francis et al., 1999; O’Doherty, 2004; Rolls et al., 2003b; Small et al., 2003).”
• Naturalizing aesthetics: Brain areas for aesthetic appraisal across sensory modalities (2011, positive): “Rostral to that, the primary gustatory cortex is located in the anterior insula (de Araujo and Simon, 2009; de Araujo et al., 2003; Small et al., 1999), as corroborated by our gustatory ALE meta-analysis.”
• Images of desire: food-craving activation during fMRI (2004, positive): “In a study using gustatory, retronasal olfactory, and flavor (combined gustatory and retronasal olfactory) stimuli, activity in anterior medial orbitofrontal cortex was correlated with rated stimulus pleasantness (Araujo et al., 2003).”
• The functional neuroanatomy of the human orbitofrontal cortex: evidence from neuroimaging and neuropsychology. (2004, background): “These error detection neurons are likely to play an important role in the behavioural changes that are required when reinforcement contingencies change (Deco and Rolls, 2004).”
