  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

The recent anatomical and electrical stimula-tion evidence indicates that the amygdala (AM) receives highly processed information from all sensory modalities via association cortex. This has led some investigators to speculate that sen-sory effects on emotional processes may depend upon relays through the AM. In addition to a role in emotional processes, the AM had been implicated in a variety of mnemonic processes. In monkey and human, bilateral damage to medial temporal lobes, which include the AM, results in global amnesia. It is possible that disconnecting specific sensory input to the medial temporal lobe might result in modality specific memory deficits. In addition, recent lesion studies suggest that the AM is important in cross-modal association. All this evidence suggests that sensory processing in the AM contributes to both emo-tional and mnemonic processes.
