Neural correlates of cognitive reappraisal and emotional experience. (A) The contrast of ‘Reappraise’ >‘Experience’, collapsed over conditions and age groups, revealed that activation in dlPFC, dmPFC and the IPL increased when participants engaged in reappraisal. (B) Conversely, the contrast of ‘Experience’ >‘Reappraise’ revealed that activation in the amygdala was decreased by reappraisal. Similar effects were observed for both negative-valenced (left images) and positive-valenced (right images) stimuli.
