Figure 2

Scatterplot showing functional connectivity between left amygdala contrast values and right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) contrast values. Contrast values are calculated for each individual as the difference between β-weights for regressors modeling the hemodynamic response to negative and neutral words, averaged across all voxels in each functional region of interest. NAC, non-anxious control; GAD, generalized anxiety disorder.
