The neuroscience of empathy and compassion in pro-social behavior.
TLDR
In this paper, the authors examine recent advances in affective neuroscience to better understand the construct of empathy and its relationship to pro-social behavior, and suggest that combining compassion interventions in conjunction with both affective and cognitive empathy offers the most optimal likelihood that individuals will engage in prosocial behavior.About:

Refining the link between psychopathy, antisocial behavior, and empathy: A meta-analytical approach across different conceptual frameworks.
Carl De Campos,Rita Pasion,Andreia Azeredo,Eduarda Ramião,Prune Mazer,I. Macedo,Fernando Barbosa +6 more
TL;DR: In this article , the complex interplay between psychopathy, antisocial behavior, and empathy was explored and the specific associations between empathy domains and psychopathy dimensions were evaluated, and the interaction between interpersonal traits and empathy domains is different across the conceptual models of psychopathy.

Neural basis of prosocial behavior
Ye Emily Wu,Weizhe Hong +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors provide a cross-species view of the behavioral manifestations, proximate and ultimate drives, and neural mechanisms of prosocial behaviors of humans and rodents, from perception and empathic sharing of others' states to prosocial decisions and actions.

Examining the relationship of empathy, social support, and prosocial behavior of adolescents in China: a structural equation modeling approach
TL;DR: Zhang et al. as mentioned in this paper examined the association between empathy and prosocial behavior in a sample of 1171 adolescents in China and found that cultivating the empathy of adolescents and promoting their perceived social support may be effective to enhancing their prosocial behaviour.

Comparisons Between COVID-19 Stigma and Other Stigmas: Distinct in Explicit Attitudes and Similar in Implicit Process
Jiajia Zhu,Lihua Yan,Yan Mu +2 more
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper conducted three studies on 1,493 Chinese participants from the outbreak to the recovery period of the COVID-19 pandemic to examine the psychological mechanisms of COVID19 stigma by comparing it with other disease-related stigmas in terms of their explicit and implicit processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association of compassion and empathy with prosocial health behaviors and attitudes in a pandemic
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors examined how dispositional compassion and empathy were associated with prosocial behaviors and attitudes in the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and found that more endorsement of understanding others' fear of COVID-19, and less endorsement of the view that others were overreacting to the crisis, was associated with greater perceived ability to help others who were negatively affected.

Saliency, switching, attention and control: a network model of insula function
Vinod Menon,Lucina Q. Uddin +1 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that this framework provides a parsimonious account of insula function in neurotypical adults, and may provide novel insights into the neural basis of disorders of affective and social cognition.

Empathy: Its ultimate and proximate bases.
TL;DR: The Perception-Action Model (PAM), together with an understanding of how representations change with experience, can explain the major empirical effects in the literature and can also predict a variety of empathy disorders.

The functional architecture of human empathy
Jean Decety,Philip L. Jackson +1 more
TL;DR: A model of empathy that involves parallel and distributed processing in a number of dissociable computational mechanisms is proposed and may be used to make specific predictions about the various empathy deficits that can be encountered in different forms of social and neurological disorders.
