The response in the dorsal insula is greater in psychopaths. (A) Greater activity in psychopaths as compared to controls for pain expressions (red circles indicate anterior dorsal insular cortex) (B) Mean contrast estimates in the left anterior insula for each emotional expression for control participants (individuals who scored <20 on the PCL-R) and for psychopaths (individuals who scored >30 on the PCL-R) (C) Mean contrast estimates in the right anterior insula for each emotional expression for each group.
