Behavioral Expression of Contextual Fear in Male and Female Rats
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2021 The study of fear conditioning has led to a better understanding of fear and anxiety-based disorders such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Despite the fact many of these disorders are more common in women than in men, the vast majority of work ...

Extinction in Human Fear Conditioning [PDF]
Biological Psychiatry, 2006 Although most extinction research is conducted in animal laboratories, the study of extinction learning in human fear conditioning has gained increasing attention over the last decade. The most important findings from human fear extinction are reviewed in this article.

Multiple factors contribute to flight behaviors during fear conditioning
Scientific Reports, 2023 Shifting defensive mode from one to another by the imminence of threat is crucial for survival. The transition of defensive mode from freezing to flight is observed during the modified fear conditioning, however, the flight during fear conditioning is ...

Reversible plasticity of fear memory-encoding amygdala synaptic circuits even after fear memory consolidation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 It is generally believed that after memory consolidation, memory-encoding synaptic circuits are persistently modified and become less plastic. This, however, may hinder the remaining capacity of information storage in a given neural circuit.

Enhanced Instructed Fear Learning in Delusion-Proneness
Frontiers in Psychology, 2022 Psychosis is associated with distorted perceptions and deficient bottom-up learning such as classical fear conditioning. This has been interpreted as reflecting imprecise priors in low-level predictive coding systems. Paradoxically, overly strong beliefs,

Molecular Brain, 2019 Information from direct experience and observation of others is integrated in the brain to enable appropriate responses to environmental stimuli. Fear memory can be acquired by observing a conspecific’s distress.

Fear conditioning- and extinction-induced neuronal plasticity in the mouse amygdala [PDF]
, 2009 Experience-dependent changes in behavior are mediated by long-term functional modifications in brain circuits. To study the underlying mechanisms, our lab is using classical auditory fear conditioning, a simple and robust form of associative learning. In

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2014 The formation of fear memory to a specific stimulus leads to subsequent fearful response to that stimulus. However, it is not known whether the formation of fear memory can affect other memories.

Differential activation of anatomically defined neuronal subpopulations in the amygdala during fear conditioning and extinction [PDF]
, 2009 The amygdala is a key structure of the neuronal circuitry mediating expression and extinction of conditioned fear. However, fear memories are thought to be encoded in a larger network comprising the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and the ...

Generalization gradients for fear and disgust in human associative learning
Scientific Reports, 2021 Previous research indicates that excessive fear is a critical feature in anxiety disorders; however, recent studies suggest that disgust may also contribute to the etiology and maintenance of some anxiety disorders.
