The two fold role of oxytocin in social developmental disorders: A cause and a remedy?
Arthur Lefevre,Angela Sirigu +1 more
TL;DR: Recent evidence suggesting a link between oxytocin labor induction and developmental social impairments such as autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is discussed and a review of animal studies investigating the long term effects of neonatal injection of Oxytocin is provided to shed light on the biological mechanisms that mediate the contribution of early oxytocIn supplementation on the development of social impairment.

Cortisol and oxytocin show independent activity during chimpanzee intergroup conflict.
TL;DR: Results indicate independent secretion of oxytocin and cortisol during chimpanzee intergroup conflict, emphasizing that stressor exposure in this context is not the main trigger of oxyobjection, and increasing levels of out-group risk showed no significant variation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Social stress and the oxytocin receptor gene interact to predict antisocial behavior in an at-risk cohort.
TL;DR: It is suggested that rs53576 polymorphisms may influence social salience and contribute to risk for antisocial outcomes, particularly under conditions of high social stress.

Oxytocin enhances gaze-following responses to videos of natural social behavior in adult male rhesus monkeys.
TL;DR: It is found that in response to more naturalistic social stimuli IN-OT enhances the propensity to interact with a social partner rather than merely elevating the perceptual salience of the eyes, which may serve as a metric for pro-social effects of oxytocin that target social action more than social perception.

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.
