It seems that rostral ACC is in the side of the critique<ref>Etkin et al., Emotional processing in anterior cingulate and medial prefrontal cortex, 2011</ref> and have negative feedback on selection of actions. it is highly active in depression<ref>Wagner G, Sinsel E, Sobanski T, et al.

rACC is negatively correlated with [[amygdala]] activity in conflict resolution tasks. it is suggested that the rACC down-regulate the amygdala<ref>[http://www.cell.com/neuron/retrieve/pii/S089662730600626X Etkin, A et al.
