Figure 4. — Sex-related differences identified in the amygdala showing a hemispheric asymmetry in memory-related activity. (A) Activity in the left amygdala while viewing emotionally arousing images was more significantly related to subsequent memory for the images in women than in men, and (B) the opposite pattern was observed in the right amygdala, i.e., greater activity in men than in women. Reproduced from Cahill et al. (2004), with permission. [To view this figure in colour, please visit the online version of this Journal.]
