Total Support

The detection of threat labels by the amygdala is closely related to its identification of novelty in the environment. Moreover, the content and the context of the stimulus influence the need to assess novel stimuli for signals of threats. Hence, while under safe conditions it evaluates only biologically relevant novel stimuli, in potentially dangerous contexts, the amygdala assesses all novel stimuli.[1]
