| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Hyperthymic temperament subjects received more sunshine whereas cyclothymic temperament subjects received less sunshine. Hyperthymic subjects had brightness preference while more sunshine incresed hyperthymic tendency. Magnetic resonance imaging studies revealed that hyperthimic temperament may be associated with neural correlates from the left medial frontal gyrus to the left inferior orbitofrontal cortex whereas cyclothymic temperament may be associated with neural correlates from the left medial frontal gyrus to the left lingual gyrus.
