Brain circuitries involved in semantic interference by demands of emotional and non-emotional distractors.
<h4>Background</h4>Previous studies have indicated that the processes leading to the resolution of emotional and non-emotional interference conflicts are unrelated, involving separate networks. It is also known that conflict resolution itself suggests a considerable overlap of the networ...
