Neurobehavioral Organization and the Cardinal Principle of Evaluative Bivalence a

The principle of evaluative bivalence asserts that behavioral processes often organize along the evaluative dimension, due to a fundamental pattern of bivalent neurobehavioral organization extending throughout the neuraxis. This principle offers a powerful approach to the explication of complex behavioral relationships and the integration of diverse literatures. It also offers a guiding conceptual framework for the study of neurobehavioral relationships which holds the promise of integrating rather than diversifying the study of neural mechanisms for disparate behavioral phenomena.
