the biological fact that messages from the thalamus go directly to the amygdala, causing arousal before interpretation, is most

Vika [28.1K]

When it comes to emotionally charged memories, the amygdala is crucial to memory formation.

Because the amygdala is connected to and located close to the hippocampus, a brain structure involved in memory, the two frequently work together to improve memory recall. The thalamus serves a variety of purposes, but it is widely thought that it serves as a hub and information relay between several subcortical regions and the cerebral cortex. The thalamic nucleus, which is present in each sensory system, receives sensory impulses and sends them to the corresponding main cortical region. The amygdala is interconnected with many other brain areas, allowing it to communicate with areas that process "higher" cognitive information and systems that control "lower" processes (including fear, anger, and fear-related behaviors)
