Impaired emotional processing in insomnia: REM sleep beta power and frontal cortex activation
This study suggests that increased mOFC activation in response to positive emotional stimuli may reflect altered emotion regulation in ID. Sleep-related hyperarousal may be linked to changes in emotion processing, providing preliminary insight into the neural basis of emotional dysregulation in insomnia.
