Journal ArticleDOI
Does Rejection Hurt? An fMRI Study of Social Exclusion
Naomi I. Eisenberger,Naomi I. Eisenberger,Matthew D. Lieberman,Matthew D. Lieberman,Kipling D. Williams,Kipling D. Williams +5 more
TL;DR: A neuroimaging study examined the neural correlates of social exclusion and tested the hypothesis that the brain bases of social pain are similar to those of physical pain, suggesting that RVPFC regulates the distress of socialclusion by disrupting ACC activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Why rejection hurts: a common neural alarm system for physical and social pain
TL;DR: Evidence suggesting that the anterior cingulate cortex plays a key role in the physical-social pain overlap is reviewed and it is suggested that the physical and social pain circuitry might share components of a broader neural alarm system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Putting Feelings Into Words Affect Labeling Disrupts Amygdala Activity in Response to Affective Stimuli
Matthew D. Lieberman,Naomi I. Eisenberger,Molly J. Crockett,Sabrina M. Tom,Jennifer H. Pfeifer,Baldwin M. Way +5 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that affect labeling may diminish emotional reactivity along a pathway from RVLPFC to MPFC to the amygdala, which is mediated by activity in medial prefrontal cortex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural correlates of dispositional mindfulness during affect labeling.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that mindfulness is associated with enhanced prefrontal cortical regulation of affect through labeling of negative affective stimuli, and strong negative associations were found between areas of prefrontal cortex and right amygdala responses in participants high in mindfulness but not in participants low in mindfulness.
Journal ArticleDOI
The pain of social disconnection: examining the shared neural underpinnings of physical and social pain
TL;DR: Emerging evidence suggests that experiences of social pain — the painful feelings associated with social disconnection — rely on some of the same neurobiological substrates that underlie experiences of physical pain.
