Fig. 1: Left amygdala activity predicted present and future impulsivity.
From: A specific neural substrate predicting current and future impulsivity in young adults
The left vertical panel depicts relationships between left amygdala activity to facial fear and UPPS-P total (beta = 0.35, p = 0.04), and between left amygdala activity to facial fear and negative urgency (beta = 0.82, p = 0.003) and lack of perseverance (beta = 0.68, p = 0.004). The right panel depicts impulsivity at 6 months predicted by left amygdala activity to facial sadness at baseline (beta = 0.50, p = 0.017). Partial regression plots of residuals are used to depict relationships from multiple regession models (covarying for gender in the left panel and baseline impulsivity in the right panel).
