换位思考是一个复杂的认知过程，涉及社会认知。本研究采用因子设计方法探讨情绪因素与透视因素之间的相互作用。参与者被要求采用他们自己的（第一人称）观点或他们母亲的（第三人称）观点来应对涉及社会情绪或中立的情况。第三人称视角对第一人称视角的主要影响是额上回内侧、左侧颞上沟、左侧颞极、扣带回后区和右侧顶叶下叶的血流动力学增加，而在相反的对比中，在中央后回发现了一个簇。当受试者处理与自己和他人有关的社会情绪时，杏仁核被选择性地激活。在左颞极和右中央后回发现了相互作用效应。这些结果支持了我们的预测，即额极、体感皮层和右下顶叶在自我/他人区分过程中起着至关重要的作用。此外，本研究为我们理解社会情绪加工和人类共情提供了重要的基石。
Perspective-taking is a complex cognitive process involved in social cognition. This positron emission tomography (PET) study investigated by means of a factorial design the interaction between the emotional and the perspective factors. Participants were asked to adopt either their own (first person) perspective or the (third person) perspective of their mothers in response to situations involving social emotions or to neutral situations. The main effect of third-person versus first-person perspective resulted in hemodynamic increase in the medial part of the superior frontal gyrus, the left superior temporal sulcus, the left temporal pole, the posterior cingulate gyrus, and the right inferior parietal lobe, A cluster in the postcentral gyrus was detected in the reverse comparison. The amygdala was selectively activated when subjects were processing social emotions, both related to self and other. Interaction effects were identified in the left temporal pole and in the right postcentral gyrus. These results support our prediction that the frontopolar, the somatosensory cortex, and the right inferior parietal lobe are crucial in the process of self/ other distinction. In addition, this study provides important building blocks in our understanding of social emotion processing and human empathy.
