Across
- 1. who did fMRI scans on patients with IED vs a control group while they viewed faces and found those with IED had higher amygdala activity when viewing angry faces. this shows that people with an over active amygdala respond to mild threats with extreme rage aggression.
- 3. this is the hippocampus, prefrontal cortex and amygdala connected (associated to emotions)
- 4. is used to describe how people respond in an overly aggressive way
- 5. they haven't done this to behave less aggressively and socially acceptably
- 9. who conducted a study finding participants with no fear response committed a crime by 23 years of age who had demonstrated no fear to noise at 3 years old
- 11. this is the amygdala's function in which people cannot recognise threats
- 12. this is what the amygdala is referred to as
- 13. how many amygdala do we have in the medial temporal cortex area of the brain?
Down
- 2. an over-active amygdala makes people perceive mild and threatening events as
- 6. response initiated when exposed to threat and when this is detected by the amygdala
- 7. almond sized structure
- 8. instead they behave overly aggressive and anti-socially
- 10. for example they may not detect
