IED is associated with hyperactivation of the amygdala in response to anger faces.
•
Previous studies suggest that alcoholism dampens amygdala AMYG responses to emotional stimuli.
•
In this study, IED subjects with history of alcoholism had a blunted amygdala response to anger faces.
•
Thus, history of alcoholism should be considered in the interpretation of emotional related fMRI studies.
