Chapter 1 endnote 42, from How Emotions are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain by Lisa Feldman Barrett.
Some context is:
In 2008, my lab along with neurologist Chris Wright demonstrated why the amygdala increases in activity in response to the basic emotion fear faces. The activity increases in response to any face — whether fearful or neutral — as long as it is novel (i.e., the test subjects have not seen it before).[1]
This effect was first observed by Dubois et al. (1999).[2][3]
For other scientific papers on the amygdala and its relation to novelty, see these references.[4][5][6][7][8][9][10]
