title: Neural Correlates of Emotion: Acquisition versus Innate View Point.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Emotion entails cognitive processes that may either be conscious or unconscious. Emotions influence all aspects of cognition.
  
  
  OBJECTIVE
  The aim of the following study was to study the effect of education on neural correlates of emotions in healthy normal volunteers.
  
  
  METHODS
  Sample consisted total of 61 healthy young educated adults in the age range of 18-40 years. The volunteers were asked to view neutral, pleasant and unpleasant pictures from international affective picture system in a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner.
  
  
  METHODS
  Rest-active block design paradigm, functional MRI results analyzed in statistical parametric mapping 8.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Activations associated with emotions were present in cerebral and cerebellar regions. Education influences emotion.
