“…Functional neuroimaging studies have focused on imagining the event in which they felt the most guilt that they had ever experienced (Shin et al, 2000), intentionally or accidentally (Berthoz et al, 2006), gender difference (Michl et al, 2014), interpersonal (altruistic) guilt (Yu et al, 2014) or deontological guilt (Basile et al, 2011), compensation that might be stimulated by guilt (Yu et al, 2014), differences between guilty and embarrassment (Takahashi et al, 2004), compassion (Zahn et al, 2009a), pride (Zahn et al, 2009b), shame (Wagner et al, 2011) (Michl et al, 2014), and sadness (Wagner et al, 2011). In these functional studies, feelings of guilt were related to activation of the superior temporal/ inferior parietal lobule (IPL) including the superior temporal sulcus (STS) (Takahashi et al, 2004;Michl et al, 2014), ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) (Zahn et al, 2009b;Morey et al, 2012), insula (Shin et al, 2000;Yu et al, 2014;Michl et al, 2014), amygdala, and subgenual cingulate cortex (SCC) (Zahn et al, 2009a(Zahn et al, ,b, 2013. A structural neuroimaging study dealing with healthy subjects linked proneness to guilt with individual variations in anterior brain regions (Zahn et al, 2013).…”
