Recalling prior experiences with a close other can fulfill the need for social connection
Humans need social connection to thrive, but how we fulfill this need is not well understood. Numerous theoretical perspectives propose that continual positive experiences with a close other fulfill the need for social connection. Despite popular acceptance for this notion, little research has investigated the consequences of having multiple experiences with a close other. As a first step toward this goal, the current studies assessed whether rec…
Relationships Between Early Maternal Warmth and Social Connection
OBJECTIVE: Early experiences of having received maternal warmth predict responses to opportunities to connect with others later in life. However, the understanding of neurochemical mechanisms by which such relationships emerge remains incomplete. Endogenous opioids, involved in social connection in both animals and humans, may contribute to this link. Therefore, the current study examined a) relationships between early maternal warmth and brain a…
A body-to-mind perspective on social connection
Social connection may stem from afferent pathways that bring bodily information to the brain and mind. In support of this perspective, research from animals and humans shows that physical warmth causally affects experiences of social connection. However, whether physical warmth affects feelings of social connection and the brain's response to close others remains unknown. In the current study, 42 participants completed an fMRI scan as they viewed…
Neural Correlates of Giving Social Support
OBJECTIVE: Giving support contributes to the link between social ties and health; however, the neural mechanisms are not known. Giving support in humans may rely on neural regions implicated in parental care in animals. The current studies, therefore, assess the contribution of parental care-related neural regions to giving support in humans and, as a further theoretical test, examine whether the benefits of giving targeted support to single, ide…
