Neural correlates of two different types of extinction learning in the amygdala central nucleus

There are two forms of extinction learning, which are vital for adaptive behaviour: simple extinction, when an expected outcome fails to occur, and overexpectation, when an exaggerated expectation is in conflict with the actual outcome.

Iordanova et al.show that both forms of extinction learning have a common neural substrate in the amygdala.
