Time courses for the left and right amygdala in both groups. In the emotion regulation phases (4–10 s), healthy controls (upper panel) displayed higher activity for upregulate > downregulate bilaterally and for upregulate > permit in the right amygdala. Patients (lower panel) displayed no task‐related activity modulations in the left amygdala, whereas they displayed similar task‐related modulations as controls in the right amygdala and additionally for permit > downregulate at the very beginning of the regulation phase. Note that group differences between conditions at the onset of the instruction were not significant (all p > .15). FLE, frontal lobe epilepsy; SE, standard error of the mean
