Treatment-related changes were observed in amygdala-prefrontal functional connectivity during affect labeling. Using the right amygdala as a seed region, greater symptom reduction was associated with more negative functional connectivity with right vlPFC from pre- to post-treatment (A). Similarly, using the left amygdala as a seed region, greater symptom reduction was associated with more negative functional connectivity with vmPFC from pre-to-post treatment (B). Together, results indicate that larger reductions in anxiety were associated with stronger negative amygdala-prefrontal connectivity at post- relative to pre-treatment. [Blue indicates changes in right amygdala functional connectivity; Red indicates changes in left amygdala functional connectivity; correlations are significant based on whole brain analyses, p < .005, clusters thresholded at k > 40]
