有效的领导者被认为通过提供追随者可以认同的包容的未来愿景来激励追随者。在这项研究中，我们考察了这一过程背后的神经机制，测试了从领导的变革性和社会认同感方法中得出的关键假设。在进行功能性核磁共振检查时，来自澳大利亚两个主要政党(自由党和工党)的支持者被呈现了由组内和组外领导人所作的鼓舞人心的集体导向和非鼓舞人心的个人导向的声明。成像数据显示，来自组内领导人的鼓舞人心的(而不是非鼓舞人心的)声明与双侧顶下小叶、顶盖下部和后中扣带皮质的激活增加有关，这些脑区通常涉及控制语义信息处理。相比之下，对于团队外的领导者来说，这些领域的更大激活与非激励性的声明有关。此外，组内(但不是组外)领导人发表的非激励性言论会导致内侧前额叶皮质的激活增加，该区域通常与对一个人的精神状态进行推理有关。这些结果表明，追随者对相同的声明的处理因领导者的群体成员身份而有质的不同，从而表明共享身份在激励性领导沟通中起到了放大作用。
Effective leaders are believed to inspire followers by providing inclusive visions of the future that followers can identify with. In the present study, we examined the neural mechanisms underlying this process, testing key hypotheses derived from transformational and social identity approaches to leadership. While undergoing functional MRI, supporters from the two major Australian political parties (Liberal vs. Labor) were presented with inspirational collective-oriented and noninspirational personal-oriented statements made by in-group and out-group leaders. Imaging data revealed that inspirational (rather than noninspirational) statements from in-group leaders were associated with increased activation in the bilateral rostral inferior parietal lobule, pars opercularis, and posterior midcingulate cortex: brain areas that are typically implicated in controlling semantic information processing. In contrast, for out-group leaders, greater activation in these areas was associated with noninspirational statements. In addition, noninspirational statements by in-group (but not out-group) leaders resulted in increased activation in the medial prefrontal cortex, an area typically associated with reasoning about a person’s mental state. These results show that followers processed identical statements qualitatively differently as a function of leaders’ group membership, thus demonstrating that shared identity acts as an amplifier for inspirational leadership communication.
