Neural activity reflecting reducing tonic level of sympathetic electrodermal arousal. The figure panels illustrate data presented from Nagai et al. (2004). (A) Decreases in skin conductance level were associated with increased activity in the ventromedial prefrontal cortex and orbitofrontal cortex this effect was independent of task in that they occurred irrespective of whether participants performed a biofeedback arousal or a biofeedback relaxation task. (B) Across all participants, activity within the subgenual cingulate region was associated with decreases in tonic skin conductance level.
