Perception of emotion in facial stimuli: The interaction of ADRA2A and COMT genotypes, and sex.

Progress in neuro-psychopharmacology & biological psychiatry - 4 Jan 2016

Tamm Gerly, Kreegipuu Kairi, Harro Jaanus

Abstract excerpt

Emotional facial stimuli are important social signals that are essential to be perceived and recognized in order to make appropriate decisions and responses in everyday communication. The ability to voluntarily guide attention to perceive and recognize emotions, and react to them varies largely across individuals, and has a strong genetic component (Friedman et al., 2008). Two key genetic variants of the...
