Depiction of the trial sequence for experiment 2 for (a) a ‘view’ CS+ trial, and (b) an ‘down-regulate’ CS+ trial in which participants are cued to imagine the CS− while viewing the CS+ . (c) Self-reported fear of shock and (d) SCR results. (e) BOLD response for the right anterior insula during experiment 2, emotion regulation phase. (f) The right anterior insula mask was derived from the neural overlap analysis from experiment 1 restricted to the insula. In general, ‘Regulate’ indicates that participants were cued to imagine the opposite stimulus to the one being viewed. Error-bars represent 95% confidence intervals. Black dots the number of participants that shared a given value in the dependent measure.
