Findings reveal altered emotion regulation and prefrontal connectivity in social anxiety disorder, suggesting implications for treatment.
The results support the idea that emotion processing and regulation influence connectivity between prefrontal areas and the amygdala in a complex, feedback-driven manner. Our findings suggest that aberrant emotion regulation in social anxiety disorder appears to be more closely linked to differences in intra-prefrontal circuits than deficits in amygdala-prefrontal connectivity.
