A Functional Cerebral Systems Approach to Depression: Contributions of the Left and Right Frontal Lobes
In the majority of the depression literature, there has been little attention paid to the mechanisms underlying the differences that occur among individuals with this label. In a theoretical paper by Shenal, Harrison, and Demaree (2003), they proposed that the differences in depression symptomology …

Dynamic Fluctuations in Emotion and Space Representation: A Functional Cerebral Systems Approach to Right Hemisphere Dysfunction
This study proposed an experimental test of theoretical models related to emotion and space representation in the brain. Previous research has established that emotion is represented, processed, expressed, and regulated largely by the right hemisphere. Furthermore, there is evidence from …

Challenging frontal lobe capacity using lateralized vestibular stress: A functional cerebral systems approach to a clinical risk for falls
… modality with executive domains by means of a functional cerebral systems framework. The claim was that frontal regions exert regulatory control over posterior systems for sensation and autonomic functions in a dense, interconnected network with right hemisphere specialization. As a …

A Functional Cerebral Systems Approach to Hostility: Changes in Frontal Lobe Delta Activation and Fluency Performance as a Function of Stress
… research has demonstrated the importance of cerebral laterality with a prominent role of the right frontal regions in the regulation of negative affect (anger, hostility) and in the generation or fluent production of designs rather than verbal fluency (left frontal). In the present research, …

Right Hemisphere Activation to Rotary Stress in High and Low Hostile Men
… respect to autonomic regulation of stress. The functional cerebral systems approach has provided a theoretical framework to account for this finding across the individual sensory, motor, and premotor modalities. The current experiment extends and elaborates upon a functional cerebral systems …

Frontal Regulation of Blood Glucose Levels as a Function of Hostility
… men have displayed dysregulation of right cerebral systems as evidenced through an exaggerated sympathetic stress response, with cardiovascular reactivity for blood pressure and heart rate. Altered right cerebral functioning, with hostility and anger, has been demonstrated within functional …

Neuropsychological and psychophysiological correlates of anger expression styles
… of self-reported anger expression style on cerebrally lateralized physiological responses to a neuropsychological stressor and a painful stimulus. Specifically, this research examined changes in systole and grip strength in response to a verbal fluency task, a figural fluency task and …

The influence of lateralized stressors on cardiovascular regulation and perception in high and low hostile men
… Results are discussed within the context of the functional cerebral systems of emotion and arousal. Implications for further research are explored.

Hostility and Cardiovascular Regulation: An Investigation of Lateralized Pre-Motor Functions
… 2001). By examining this issue through a functional cerebral systems approach, one is better able to conceptualize changes that occur when men with extreme hostility levels (e.g. high and low) carry out emotional regulation tasks. High and low hostile groups have been shown to differ in …
