abstract="Two syndromes with opposite kinds of homicidal acts also implicate opposite activation of frontal lobe and limbic systems. I. Fried's &quot;Syndrome E&quot; refers to planned, ideologically-motivated mass murders, committed in groups and accompanied by &quot;elation.&quot; Implicated are heightened functioning of certain frontal lobe regions with certain reduced limbic involvement . In contrast, A. A. Pontius' &quot;Limbic Psychotic Trigger Reaction&quot; delineates unplanned, motiveless homicidal acts (so far 17 cases) committed by a single loner with flat affect, implicating a partial limbic seizure hyperactivation with fleeting psychosis and brief secondary dysfunctioning of certain frontal regions.<p />",
