So excited to share chapter 2 of my dissertation, published today in #NatureNeuroscience. We used movie to capture how the brain represents emotion concepts (e.g., angry, sad, happy, etc) in 5-to-15-year-old children. Two main findings:
First, each emotion is represented in a distinct way across the brain.
Second, activation more broadly synchronizes with age, suggesting that we develop a shared interpretation of emotion cues across adolescence. #neuroscience #science
