Fig. 3.

(A) Face-responsive regions in the left and right amygdala (shown in green) based on the functional localizer scan which comprised a total of 29 voxels in the left amygdala and 151 voxels in the right amygdala; the image was taken at the MNI coordinate x = 20, y = −10, z = −20 and follows the radiological convention with the right hemisphere represented on the left side. (B) Per cent signal change for each condition in left and right amygdala defined with the functional localizer masks (F = fear expressions, A = anger, D = disgust, H = happy, S = sad, N = neutral, _25%H = 25% happy along neutral-happy continuum, B = buildings). The response to fear and anger was significantly greater than the response to all of the control conditions. Bars represent standard errors of the means.
