Anticipatory activation in the amygdala and anterior cingulate in generalized anxiety disorder and prediction of treatment responseJack B Nitschke
Departments of Psychiatry and Psychology, University of Wisconsin, Madison, 53705 2280, USA

Functional neuroanatomy of aversion and its anticipationJack B Nitschke
The Waisman Laboratory for Brain Imaging and Behavior, Waisman Center, Department of Psychiatry, University of Wisconsin, 1500 Highland Avenue, Madison, WI 53705 2280, USA
Neuroimage 29:106-16. 2006..These results show that anticipation of aversion recruits key brain regions that respond to aversion, thereby potentially enhancing adaptive responses to aversive events...
Altering expectancy dampens neural response to aversive taste in primary taste cortexJack B Nitschke
Waisman Laboratory for Brain Imaging and Behavior, Waisman Center, Departments of Psychiatry and Psychology, University of Wisconsin, 1500 Highland Avenue, Madison, Wisconsin 53705 2274, USA
Nat Neurosci 9:435-42. 2006..In addition, the activation of the right insula and operculum tracked online ratings of the aversiveness for each taste. Such expectancy-driven modulation of primary sensory cortex may affect perceptions of external events...
Brain mechanisms of expectation associated with insula and amygdala response to aversive taste: implications for placeboIssidoros Sarinopoulos
Waisman Laboratory for Brain Imaging and Behavior, Waisman Center, Department of Psychiatry, University of Wisconsin, 1500 Highland Avenue, Madison, WI 53705-2274, USA
Brain Behav Immun 20:120-32. 2006..Altering expectancies of upcoming aversive events are shown here to depend on robust functional associations among brain regions implicated in prior work on the placebo effect...

Worry facilitates corticospinal motor response to transcranial magnetic stimulationDesmond J Oathes
Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, USA
Depress Anxiety 25:969-76. 2008..These findings suggest that the association between worry and motor preparation cannot be explained by high cognitive load and provide further support for theoretical accounts emphasizing the role of action preparation in anxiety...
Depression: perspectives from affective neuroscienceRichard J Davidson
Laboratory for Affective Neuroscience and W M Keck Laboratory for Functional Brain Imaging and Behavior, University of Wisconsin Madison, Madison, Wisconsin 53705 2280, USA
Annu Rev Psychol 53:545-74. 2002....
Now you feel it, now you don't: frontal brain electrical asymmetry and individual differences in emotion regulationDaren C Jackson
University of Wisconsin Madison, 53706, USA
Psychol Sci 14:612-7. 2003..This relation between resting frontal activation and recovery following an aversive event supports the idea of a frontally mediated mechanism involved in one form of automatic emotion regulation...
Startle potentiation in aversive anticipation: evidence for state but not trait effectsJack B Nitschke
Department of Psychology, University of Wisconsin, Madison 53706 1696, USA
Psychophysiology 39:254-8. 2002..These data suggest that the aversive nature of stimuli contribute to the potentiation of startle above and beyond the effects of emotional arousal, which may be a universal phenomenon not modulated by individual differences...
Making a life worth living: neural correlates of well-beingHeather L Urry
