Limbic Generation of Vocalization: Vocalization as an Index of Behavioral State Mammalian vocalizations are generated by affective states of callers as a result of social-affective interactions and generated by limbic circuitries. The vocalizations have not only the capacity of influencing behavior of the recipients, but they can also serve as an index of a relevant affective state of the vocalizing animal. Evidence for this can be found in many groups, ranging from rodents to primates, and also in infants.
