Prior literature has pointed to the role of retrosplenial/posterior cingulate cortex in functions such as autobiographic memory (see Svoboda et al., 2006 for a meta-analytic review), the feeling of familiarity (Montaldi et al., 2006), emotional perception irrespective of valence (Maddock, 1999; Small et al., 2001), and perceptual decisions based on subjective preference (Johnson et al., 2005).
