To interact and communicate effectively, it is essential to understand the thoughts and emotions of the person one is interacting with. There is a rich research tradition on phenomena that enable an understanding of others. This research investigates social cognitive aspects (like ´Theory of Mind´), social affective aspects (like empathy) as well as related social behaviors (like joint actions, prosocial behavior, aggressive behaviors or moral judgments). Despite progress in these different research domains, there have been very few attempts to link social cognitive and affective phenomena, processes and mechanisms as well as related behaviors in an overarching theoretical framework that integrates findings from the disciplines of philosophy, psychological science, and neuroscience. Here, we identified that construct definitions should be newly addressed and that specificities and relationships of the involved target agents across these different social interaction phenomena have not been explored in an integrative manner. Further, we recognized that methodological challenges in terms of commonly employed tests and measures as well as technical challenges regarding study design and data analysis strategies were never approached within one comprehensive framework. To address these points, the proposed scientific network aims to bring together experts from cognitive and affective research domains in a series of interdisciplinary workshops.

要有效地互动和沟通，了解对方的想法和情绪是至关重要的。对于能够理解他人的现象，有着丰富的研究传统。这项研究调查了社会认知方面(如心理理论)、社会情感方面(如移情)以及相关的社会行为(如联合行动、亲社会行为、攻击行为或道德判断)。尽管在这些不同的研究领域取得了进展，但很少有人尝试将社会认知和情感现象、过程和机制以及相关行为联系在一个综合了哲学、心理科学和神经科学的研究成果的总体理论框架中。在这里，我们确定了结构定义应该是新的，并且所涉及的目标代理在这些不同的社会交互现象中的特殊性和关系还没有以综合的方式被探索。此外，我们认识到，在常用测试和措施方面的方法学挑战以及在研究设计和数据分析战略方面的技术挑战从未在一个全面的框架内解决。为了解决这些问题，拟议的科学网络旨在将认知和情感研究领域的专家聚集在一起，举办一系列跨学科研讨会。
