Abstract
⺠Fear generalization is the transfer of conditioned fear to perceptually similar stimuli. ⺠Physiological/behavioral responses follow a gradient linked to perceptual similarity of stimuli. ⺠In two fMRI experiments we replicate these gradients, localized to the insula, anterior cingulate, supplementary motor area and caudate. ⺠A paradigm is established to probe the neurocircuitry of generalization in anxiety.
