Central role of somatosensory processes in sexual arousal as identified by neuroimaging techniques
Résumé
Research on the neural correlates of sexual aroused is a growing field of research in affective neuroscience. A new approach studying the correlation between the hemodynamic cerebral response and autonomic genital response has enabled distinct brain areas to be identified according to their role in inducing penile erection, on the one hand, and in representing penile sensation, on the other.
