The paper investigates how contingency awareness affects neural circuits involved in visceral pain-related fear and safety learning using fMRI data from healthy individuals.

The paper predicts individual differences in fear and cognitive learning and extinction using multimodal neural connectivity patterns from a large dataset.

The paper identifies convergent and selective functional zones in the insula using fMRI data, revealing a hierarchical convergence architecture across pain, appetitive, aversive, and cognitive control domains.

This study investigates how costly avoidance affects the modulation and extinction of visceral pain-related fear, finding that avoidance maintains fear and may hinder extinction.
