Abstract

Previous work has shown that healthy individuals can actively suppress emotional memories through recruitment of the lateral prefrontal cortex. By contrast, individuals with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have difficulty suppressing negative information, giving rise to symptoms such as intrusive thoughts. However, little is known regarding the behavioral and neural effects of memory suppression in PTSD.
