Effects of intranasal oxytocin on threat- and reward-related functional connectivity in men and women with and without childhood abuse-related PTSD
Lauren M. Sippel,Julianne C. Flanagan,Paul E. Holtzheimer,Megan M. Moran-Santa-Maria,Kathleen T. Brady,Kathleen T. Brady,Jane E. Joseph +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled crossover design to test whether intranasal oxytocin (24 international units) influenced functional coupling of the amygdala with the anterior insula (AI), dorsal anterior cingulate cortex, and nucleus accumbens in response to implicitly presented fearful, angry, and happy faces among childhood trauma-exposed individuals with and without PTSD.
Comparative social cognition: behavioural, genetic and neurohormonal components
TL;DR: This paper argued that when social experience becomes a source of anxiety rather than comfort, we have lost something fundamental, i.e., we are, by nature, a highly affiliative species craving social contact.

Oxytocin amplifies the influence of good intentions on social judgments.
TL;DR: The results showed that the effect of OT on social judgment was modulated by intention: OT increased goodness ratings only towards dictators with hyperfair intention, which support the affiliative-motivation theory which states that OT enhances the affiliatives motivation and recognition of positive-valence social stimuli.

Insular Cortex Mediates Approach And Avoidance Responses To Social Affective Stimuli
Morgan M. Rogers,Juan A. Varela,Katherine B. Gribbons,Anne F. Pierce,Morgan T. McGoey,John P. Christianson +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that insula is a key component in the circuit underlying age-dependent social responses to stressed conspecifics, and functional connectivity between the insular cortex and the network of regions involved in social decision making is identified.

Oxytocin increases trust in humans
TL;DR: It is shown that intranasal administration of oxytocin, a neuropeptide that plays a key role in social attachment and affiliation in non-human mammals, causes a substantial increase in trust among humans, thereby greatly increasing the benefits from social interactions.

A cognitive-affective system theory of personality: Reconceptualizing situations, dispositions, dynamics, and invariance in personality structure.
Walter Mischel,Yuichi Shoda +1 more
TL;DR: A theory was proposed to reconcile paradoxical findings on the invariance of personality and the variability of behavior across situations to account for individual differences in predictable patterns of variability across situations.
