title: Amplitude of low-frequency oscillations associated with emotional conflict control.
abstract: Previous fMRI studies related to emotional conflict focused on task activation during the specific experimental paradigm. Yet, the underlying spontaneous neural activity was largely unknown. Here, this was the first study using resting-state fMRI to explore the spontaneous neural activity related to emotional conflict. We used the whole-brain analysis to investigate the association between emotional conflict and amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (ALFF) in a large sample. We found that the emotional conflict effect was negatively correlated with ALFF in the right AMY. These findings implied that AMY was the key region which plays a crucial role in emotional conflict.
