When emotion and time meet from human and rodent perspectives: a central role for the amygdala?
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Initiated by a long stay of Valérie Doyère in the laboratory of Joseph LeDoux, a Franco-American collaborative group was formed around the topic of emotion and time perception in a comparative perspective between humans and non-human animals. Here, we discuss results from our studies on the mechanisms underlying time distortion under 2 conditions, timing of a threatening stimulus and timing of a neutral stimulus in the context of fear, with insights from neurodevelopment. Although the type of temporal distortion depends on the experimental situations, in both humans and rodents a high-arousal emotion automatically triggers acceleration of an "internal clock" system, an effect that may rely on the early maturing amygdala. Our studies, particularly in humans, also point to the role of attention and self-awareness in regulating the effect of fear on timing, relying on the prefrontal cortex, a late maturing structure. Thus, in line with LeDoux, while the amygdala may process all characteristics of events (including time) necessary to quickly trigger appropriate survival behaviors, some type of time distortions may rely on higher-order processing, some specific to humans. The extent of the network underlying threat-related time distortions remains to be explored, with species comparisons being a promising means of investigation.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
