前扣带皮层（ACC）与广泛的行为和认知过程有关，但目前还不清楚ACC对社会行为的贡献。我们认为，解剖学和功能的证据表明，一个特定的子区域的前扣回（ACCG）在处理社会信息中起着至关重要的作用。我们建议，ACCG的计算特性支持社会认知的贡献，估计其他人的动机，并动态更新这些估计时，进一步的证据表明，他们一直是错误的。值得注意的是，这个模型，替代动机和错误处理的基础上，提供了一个统一的帐户的神经生理学和神经影像学证据表明，ACCG是敏感的成本，收益和社会交往中的错误。此外，它对一个关键机制做出了具体的、可检验的预测，这个机制可能是健康和疾病中社会认知能力变异的基础。前扣带回（ACCg）主要传递他人导向的信息。ACCg对他人的动机和预测错误做出反应。ACCg的变异性可能导致健康和疾病中社会认知的变异性。回顾了前扣带回在社会认知中的特殊性质，并提出了一个计算帐户，如何在人类和非人类灵长类动物的前扣带回中估计其他代理人的动机。
The anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) is implicated in a broad range of behaviors and cognitive processes, but it has been unclear what contribution, if any, the ACC makes to social behavior. We argue that anatomical and functional evidence suggests that a specific sub-region of ACC—in the gyrus (ACCg)—plays a crucial role in processing social information. We propose that the computational properties of the ACCg support a contribution to social cognition by estimating how motivated other individuals are and dynamically updating those estimates when further evidence suggests they have been erroneous. Notably this model, based on vicarious motivation and error processing, provides a unified account of neurophysiological and neuroimaging evidence that the ACCg is sensitive to costs, benefits, and errors during social interactions. Furthermore, it makes specific, testable predictions about a key mechanism that may underpin variability in socio-cognitive abilities in health and disease. The anterior cingulate gyrus (ACCg) mainly signals other-oriented information The ACCg responds to others’ motivation and prediction errors ACCg variability may lead to variability in social cognition in health and disease A computational framework is proposed accounting for ACCg social responses Apps et al. review specialized properties of the anterior cingulate gyrus in social cognition and put forward a computational account of how the motivation of other agents is estimated in the anterior cingulate gyrus of human and non-human primates.
