群际共情偏差的脑功能网络:基于fMRI研究的元分析
The functional brain networks of intergroup empathy bias:A meta-analysis based on fMRI studies
摘要
Abstract
Intergroup empathy bias refers to the phenomenon where individuals exhibit unequal empathy towards in-group and out-group members.Currently,the neural mechanisms underlying intergroup empathy bias,particularly the functional brain networks and neural regulatory mechanisms,remain poorly understood.This study utilized Activation Likelihood Estimation(ALE)to analyze the brain region coordinates reported in 19 studies on intergroup empathy bias and identified two significant clusters in the left anterior insula(lAI)and the medial prefrontal cortex(mPFC).Furthermore,by employing Meta-Analytic Connectivity Modeling(MACM)and Neurosynth functional decoding,the study revealed that these clusters not only play a crucial role in intergroup empathy bias but also exhibit functional overlap with the Central Executive Network(CEN).This discovery enhances the neuroscientific and theoretical foundation of intergroup empathy while providing critical evidence for developing educational intervention strategies.Future research should investigate the specific functional characteristics of these key brain regions and their neural regulatory mechanisms,aiming to translate neuroscientific insights into practical interventions that reduce empathy bias,promote intergroup harmony,mitigate social prejudice,and resolve conflicts.关键词
