p025fig01.16 (left panel) The main processing stages of the Cognitive-Emotional-Motor (CogEM) model have anatomical interpretations in terms of sensory cortex, amygdala, and prefrontal cortex. Chapter 13 will describe in greater detail how CS cues activate invariant object categories in the sensory cortex, value categories in the amygdala, and object-value categories in the prefrontal cortex, notably the orbitofrontal cortex. The amygdala is also modulated by internal drive inputs like hunger and satiety. (right panel) Anatomical data support this circuit, as do many neurophysiological data.
