Fig. 3

Age-related differences in the emotional network for negative pictures, showing a Posterior–Anterior Shift in Aging (approaches P = .000125). Older adults had enhanced functional connectivity between the right amygdala and anterior brain regions (ACC), and reduced functional connectivity between the right amygdala and posterior brain regions. The y-axis represents the difference in correlations between negative and neutral conditions. ACC: anterior cingulate cortex.
