Rationality and emotionality: serotonin transporter genotype influences reasoning bias.
Reasoning often occurs under emotionally charged, opinion-laden circumstances. The belief-bias effect indexes the extent to which reasoning is based upon beliefs rather than logical structure. We examined whether emotional content increases this effect, particularly for adults genetically predisposed to be more emotionally reactive. SS/SL(G) carriers of the serotonin transporter genotype (5-HTT...
متن کاملModulation of Reasoning Bias and Brain Activation by Serotonin Transporter Genotype and Emotional Content
Reasoning often occurs under emotionally charged, opinion-laden circumstances. The belief-bias effect indexes the extent to which reasoning is based upon beliefs rather than logical structure. We hypothesized that emotional content will increase this effect, particularly for individuals with higher emotional reactivity. The serotonin transporter genotype is associated with emotional reactivity ...
متن کاملProsociality and negative emotionality mediate the association of serotonin transporter genotype with childhood ADHD and ODD.
Although there is evidence that the promoter polymorphism of the serotonin transporter (5-HTTLPR) gene is associated with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), the pathways underlying these associations are largely unknown. Given their theoretical and biological plausibility, we tested whether individual differences in key temperament dimension...
متن کاملSerotonin transporter genotype affects serotonin 5-HT1A binding in primates.
Disruption of the serotonin system has been implicated in anxiety and depression and a related genetic variation has been identified that may predispose individuals for these illnesses. The relationship of a functional variation of the serotonin transporter promoter gene (5-HTTLPR) on serotonin transporter binding using in vivo imaging techniques have yielded inconsistent findings when comparin...
متن کاملCentral serotonin transporter availability measured with [123I]beta-CIT SPECT in relation to serotonin transporter genotype.
OBJECTIVE A functional polymorphism has been described in the promoter region of the gene (SLC6A4) coding for the serotonin transporter protein (SERT). This polymorphism has two common alleles, designated as long and short. Each allele has been linked with a number of human clinical phenotypes, including neuropsychiatric diseases associated with dysregulation of serotonin transmission. In vitro...
