Research of environmental factors for critical learning periods of empathy in quantitative models of animal refined psychology

同情他人是我们社会生活中的一个重要因素。共情困难的高发生率提示环境因素的影响，需要有效的干预。因此，我们假设了共情在母语习得等“关键学习时期”的发展机制，并建立了家禽和猴子的神经生物学模型。我们设计了亚斯伯格综合症儿童社会交往的定量分析方法，并将其应用到模型中，发现同伴互动环境与他们在高敏感期的共同动机的重要性以及大脑单胺的关系。此外，与社会互动相伴随的营养对关键期后的发育也有一定的支持作用。

Empathy with others ’is an essential factor in our social lives. The high incidence of empathizing difficulty suggests the contribution of environmental factors and the effective intervention is expected. Hence, we hypothesized the developmental mechanism of empathy at ‘critical learning periods ’like mother language acquisition and established the neurobiological model of domestic chicks and monkeys. We designed the quantitative analysis method of social communication in Asperger syndrome children, applied it to the model, and found the importance of peer-interactive environment with their common motivation during a high sensitive period and the relation of brain monoamines. Furthermore, the nourishing concomitant with social interaction seemed effective in supporting the development after the critical period.
