TY - JOUR PY - 1989// TI - Perception, cognition and action: the mediating role of affective states JO - Brain, behavior and evolution A1 - Karli, P. SP - 153 EP - 156 VL - 33 IS - 2-3 N2 - When facing and evaluating the present state of the world, the brain generates predictions and expectancies together with some specific emotional state which imposes on any given situation - or rather on the individual relationship to that situation - its essential meaning that basically orients the choice of an appropriate behavioural strategy. This general notion is exemplified by concrete data concerning brain mechanisms which underlie aggressive behaviour.
