Summary

This rejoinder uses the neuroimaging literature on affect regulation to exemplify how integration of complementary methods suggested by the commentaries could advance neurobiological understanding of personality disorders. It illustrates progressive insights gained from incorporating multiple sources of evidence including neuroimaging, genetics, and behavioral data associated with affect regulation. It also demonstrates the use of brain pattern activation analysis in addition to studying individual regions of interest to better understand the complex relationships between biological genotype, brain activity, and behavioral phenotype. The ways in which neuroimaging can serve as an endophenotype to bridge the gap between genes and distant phenotypes are highlighted.
