Abstract
The current study examined the impact of pre-existing symptomatology and perfectionistic tendencies on activity in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DL-PFC). Results indicated overall elevated activity associated with anxiety, as well as unique patterns of activity across the DL-PFC associated with interactions between specific types of symptomatology and particular perfectionistic tendencies.
