Intranasal oxytocin attenuates the human acoustic startle response independent of emotional modulation.
TL;DR: The results suggest that oxytocin facilitates prosocial behavior, in part, by attenuating basic physiological arousal, and the dampening effect of Oxytocin on EMG startle could possibly be used as an inexpensive marker of oxytocins effect on limbic brain circuits.
