社会神经科学是社会认知领域中最新、发展最快的领域之一。在本章中,作者描述了如何使用社会神经科学方法来解决该领域的经典和当代问题。本章首先简要介绍了认知神经科学,重点介绍了目前社会认知研究者研究的主要大脑区域以及通常用于测量大脑活动的技术。然后,作者讨论了社会神经科学方法可以解决的问题类型,指出了在连接心理和生理分析水平时要考虑的关键方法问题。接下来,描述了社会认知研究主要领域的关键社会神经科学发现,重点是神经科学方法如何促进社会认知机制的理论。最后,作者讨论了社会神经科学研究的一些挑战和局限性,并对其未来发展方向进行了评论。
Social neuroscience is one of the newest and most rapidly expanding areas in the field of social cognition. In this chapter, the authors describe how the social neuroscience approach has been used to address classic and contemporary issues in this field. The chapter begins with a brief primer on cognitive neuroscience that highlights major brain regions currently studied by social cognition researchers and the techniques commonly used to measure brain activity. The authors then discuss the types of questions a social neuroscience approach can address, noting critical methodological issues to consider when bridging psychological and physiological levels of analysis. Next, key social neuroscience findings across major areas of social cognition research are described, with an emphasis on how the neuroscience approach has advanced theories about social cognitive mechanism. Finally, the authors discuss some challenges and limitations of social neuroscience research and comment on its future directions.
