The roles of orbital frontal cortex in the modulation of antisocial behavior. (2004, background): “This is because a dedicated neural circuitry mediates reactive aggression and humans share this circuitry with other mammalian species (Gregg & Siegel, 2001; Panksepp, 1998).”
The neuroimaging of emotion. (2008, background): “…of lateral columns elicits ‘defensive’ behaviors such as facing and backing away from a perceived attacker, hissing, and attack when approached (Gregg & Siegel, 2001), autonomic responses including tachycardia, increased blood pressure and blood flow to the face, pupillary dilation, and…”
The brain basis of emotion: A meta-analytic review (2012, background): “…that allow for behavioral adaptations such as freezing, fleeing, vocalization, and reproductive behavior (e.g., Carrive et al. 1989; Behbehani 1995; Gregg & Siegel 2001; Kim et al. 1993; Lovick 1992; Mobbs et al. 2007; Van der Horst & Holstege 1998) and also sends projections back to cortical…”
Psychopathy, reactive aggression, and precarious proclamations: A review of behavioral, cognitive, and biological research. (2011, unknown): “…distinguishable forms of aggression in children (Kempes, Matthys, de Vries, & van Engeland, 2005; Raine et al., 2006; Vitiello, Behar, Hunt, Stoff, & Riccuiti, 1990), adult humans (Chase, O'Leary, & Heyman, 2001; Raine et al., 1998), and nonhuman animals (Eichelman, 1992; Gregg & Siegel, 2001).”
