“…In turn, females experienced more brain activation in the thalamus and cortical regions in response to both sexual and emotional infidelity [ 70 ]. Comparing these data with, for example, delusional jealousy in a 77-year-old man after a right middle cerebral artery infarction [ 71 ], reveals significant overlap. Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) performed on the patient revealed that there was decreased blood flow to the right frontal lobe, which could result in damage to the area.…”

“…Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) performed on the patient revealed that there was decreased blood flow to the right frontal lobe, which could result in damage to the area. These data, combined with the case of the 20-year-old woman experiencing delusional jealousy following right frontal lobe damage, suggest that the right frontal lobe plays a role in delusional jealousy [ 71 ].…”

Self-Conscious Emotions and the Right Fronto-Temporal and Right Temporal Parietal Junction

For more than two decades, research focusing on both clinical and non-clinical populations has suggested a key role for specific regions in the regulation of self-conscious emotions. It is speculated that both the expression and the interpretation of self-conscious emotions are critical in humans for action planning and response, communication, learning, parenting, and most social encounters. Empathy, Guilt, Jealousy, Shame, and Pride are all categorized as self-conscious emotions, all of which are crucial components to one’s sense of self. There has been an abundance of evidence pointing to the right Fronto-Temporal involvement in the integration of cognitive processes underlying the expression of these emotions. Numerous regions within the right hemisphere have been identified including the right temporal parietal junction (rTPJ), the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), and the inferior parietal lobule (IPL). In this review, we aim to investigate patient cases, in addition to clinical and non-clinical studies. We also aim to highlight these specific brain regions pivotal to the right hemispheric dominance observed in the neural correlates of such self-conscious emotions and provide the potential role that self-conscious emotions play in evolution.

“…1,2 Delusional jealousy may be observed in many psychiatric disorders, but previous clinical reports have noted the association of this morbid condition in several organic psychoses, including stroke, 3,4 Parkinson's disease, 5,6 traumatic brain injury, 7 and dementia. 8 Soyka et al 9 found that the prevalence of delusional jealousy was highest in organic psychoses (7.0%), followed by paranoid disorders (6.7%), alcohol psychosis (5.6%), and schizophrenia (2.5%); whereas in affective disorder, delusional jealousy was found in only 0.1% of patients.…”

Objective: Delusional jealousy is a psychotic syndrome characterized by a belief in the infidelity of one's spouse that reaches delusional intensity. Although delusional jealousy has been described in relation to organic psychosis, little is known concerning the actual role of delusional jealousy in dementia. The aim of the present study was to investigate the clinical features of delusional jealousy and possible mechanisms whereby delusional jealousy arises in patients with dementia.
