Psychobiological Aspects of Emotion-Cognition Relationships: A Special Issue of Cognition and Emotion

by Murray Gray, Dave Gray, Jeffrey A. Gray (Editor)

Recent analyses of the relationships between cognition and emotion based upon experimental studies of human subjects have tended to proceed in virtually complete isolation from data and theory derived from work with animals. Partly as a consequence of this isolation, such analyses have had little contact with relevant biological or neurological research. The articles in this special issue of Cognition and Emotion aim to redress this balance. They present a number of diverse, but related, points of view on the neurobiology and neuropsychology of emotion, cognition and their interface. The contributors are all distinguished scientists who are actively involved in both empirical and theoretical research in this field.

Brengt opzich bijzondere inzichten, maar beetje eenrichtingsverkeer (emotion --> cognition) mist een beetje de andere kant op en het op elkaar inwerken. Rust helaas nogal veel op assumpties en "lets say's." Wel mooie basis op het gebied, goed startpunt voor de verschillende richting en theorieën en daardoor mooi overzicht.
