Depression: perspectives from affective neuroscience. (2002, background): “…and negative affect has been a prevalent view in the literature, particularly when examined in response to exteroceptive aversive stimuli (e.g., LeDoux 2000), recent findings from invasive animal studies and human lesion and functional neuroimaging studies are converging on a broader view that…”
Emergent Ghosts of the Emotion Machine (2010, background): “Ultimately, and although many researchers have criticized the use of subjective experience reports in the study of emotion (Davidson, 2003; LeDoux, 2000), the need for subjective report measurement, and indeed interest in subjective experiences for their own sake, remains sufficiently strong to…”
From mood to food and from food to mood: A psychological perspective on the measurement of food-related emotions in consumer research (2015, background): “Apart from the serotonin hypothesis mentioned above there have not beenmany other efforts to find reasonable physiological mechanisms and the serotonin hypothesis faces also many other problems than the objection of Macht (1999) that it implies a delay in the reaction.”
Reply — reconsolidation: The labile nature of consolidation theory (2000, neutral): “we used targeted infusions of anisomycin into the lateral amygdala, the site thought to mediate consolidation of the memory for auditory fear conditionin”
Hippocampal place cells acquire location-specific responses to the conditioned stimulus during auditory fear conditioning. (2003, methodology): “…the hippocampus, such as the amygdala in the ISI histograms had to exhibit a refractory period of at least 2 ms,case of fear conditioning (LeDoux, 2000; Maren, 2001) so that high-frequency multiunit spike waveforms would not be inor the cerebellum in the case of eyeblink conditioning…”
The social brain? (2007, background): “Extensive research with animals has shown that the amygdala is part of a system that learns to associate value with stimuli (Dolan 2002), whether or not these stimuli are social (LeDoux 2000).”
Don't fear ‘fear conditioning’: Methodological considerations for the design and analysis of studies on human fear acquisition, extinction, and return of fear (2017, positive): “…information available today derived from animal experiments on the behaviour, neurobiology and pharmacology of the acquisition (Davis et al., 1993; LeDoux, 2000), extinction (Bouton et al., 2006a,b; Myers and Davis, 2002; Quirk et al., 2006), and return (Bouton, 2002; Vervliet et al., 2013b) of…”
The primate amygdala represents the positive and negative value of visual stimuli during learning (2006, background): “The primary objectives of our study were (1) to determine whether positive and negative conditioned visual stimuli engage the same or different populations of amygdala neurons, (2) to compare quantitatively the time course of how neural activity and behaviour change upon image value changes, and (3)”
Tonic Immobility as an Evolved Predator Defense: Implications for Sexual Assault Survivors (2008, background): “These behavioral action tendencies are associated with the multicomponent emotional response known as fear (LeDoux, 2000).”
