Differential limbic–cortical correlates of sadness and anxiety in healthy subjects: implications for affective disorders

These findings are interpreted within a model in which sadness and anxiety are represented by segregated corticolimbic pathways, where a major role is played by selective dorsal cortical deactivations during sadness, and ventral cortical deactivateations in anxiety.
