Emotion-induced loss aversion and striatal-amygdala coupling in low-anxious individuals.

We identified a greater parametric response to decreasing losses relative to increasing gains in each of these three regions (significant in the ventral striatum, t (27) = 3.52, P = 0.002; and amygdala, t (27) = 3.16, P = 0.004; marginally significant in the ACC/OFC, t (27) = 1.95, P = 0.06; Figure 3 D–F), consistent with previous reports of loss-biased value signals in these regions ( Tom et al ., 2007 ; Canessa et al ., 2013 ; Sokol-Hessner et al ., 2013 ).
