Abstract
Stimulation and ablation of the amygdaloid nuclear complex result in a variety of somatic, visceral, endocrine and behavioral effects. Since this brain area is a very heterogeneous structure, with a number of rather distinct subdivisions, and since differences in structure obviously implies functional differences, it is reasonable that attempts have been made to correlate structure and patterns of responses.
