Genetics of emotion.

Trends in cognitive sciences - 1 Sept 2011

Bevilacqua Laura, Goldman David

Abstract excerpt

Emotion is critical to most aspects of human behavior, and individual differences in systems recruited to process emotional stimuli, expressed as variation in emotionality, are characteristic of several neuropsychiatric disorders. We examine the genetic origins of individual differences in emotion processing by focusing on functional variants at five genes: catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT), serotonin...
