Development of the social brain during adolescence (2015, background): “These regions form the “social brain”, which is the brain basis for the capacity to process social signals (Frith & Frith, 2007).”
Imaging brain development: The adolescent brain (2012, background): “While many studies over the past 30 years have investigated the development of mentalising in infancy and childhood, pointing to step-wise changes in social cognitive abilities during the first five years of life (Frith and Frith, 2007), recently experimental studies have focused on the development ”
The importance of belonging and the avoidance of social risk taking in adolescence (2021, background): “This might be partly dependent on the development of the social brain, the network of brain regions involved in social perception and social cognition, which allows us to understand and interact with other people (Frith & Frith, 2007).”
Bridging the Gap between Social Animal and Unsocial Machine: A Survey of Social Signal Processing (2012, neutral): “brain structures, called mirror neurons [1], that seem to have no other goal than improving our awareness of others, whether this means to share their feelings [2] or to learn through imitation [3].”
How do you feel — now? The anterior insula and human awareness (2009, background): “A further proposal is that a reflective awareness of oneself across time that can compare the effects of one's actions now, in the past and in the future was required for the evolution of deliberate social signalling (intentional emotional interaction between individuals”
Enactive intersubjectivity: Participatory sense-making and mutual incorporation (2009, background): “Decety and Sommerville 2003; Frith and Frith 2001, 2007 ).”
Social Constraints on the Direct Perception of Emotions and Intentions (2014, methodology): “14 In discussing the concept of direct perception, Gallagher (2008a) made use of the example of perceiving his red car.”
Understanding Others: Brain Mechanisms of Theory of Mind and Empathy (2008, background): “At present, more and more evidence is accumulating on the neural basis underlying ontogenetic changes of social cognitive abilities and prosocial behavior during childhood and adolescence (for reviews, see e.g. Frith and Frith, 2007; Blakemore, 2008, 2012).”
Implications of Affective and Social Neuroscience for Educational Theory (2011, background): “Now, social neuroscience is revealing some of the basic biological mechanisms by which social learning takes place (Frith & Frith, 2007; Mitchell, 2008).”
The social brain in adolescence (2008, neutral): “The social brain The social brain is defined as the complex network of areas that enable us to recognize others and evaluate their mental states (intentions, desires and beliefs), feelings, enduring dispositions and action”
The effects of social deprivation on adolescent development and mental health (2020, positive): “Indeed, adolescence can be considered a sensitive period for social development(4), which might be partly dependent on the development of the social brain: the network of brain areas involved in social perception and cognition that allows us to understand others(18).”
Brain basis of human social interaction: from concepts to brain imaging. (2009, background): “Furthermore, the amygdala is considered important in attaching value to stimuli (70).”
The interactive brain hypothesis (2012, background): “…also implies a representationalist view according to which mutual understanding involves the sharing of hidden “mental representations” (without attempting to specify what they are): “For successful interactions [we] need to share representations of the world” (Frith and Frith, 2007, p. R727).”
The Two Forms of Visuo-Spatial Perspective Taking are Differently Embodied and Subserve Different Spatial Prepositions (2010, background): “…perspective taking, social cognition, spatial language These examples point out the importance of VPT in communication, e.g., for establishing a common reference frame for understanding spatial localizations or more generally for establishing a shared view of the world (Frith and Frith, 2007).”
