The Social Brain: X-System
Automatic
vMPFC
(
X
) also called (OFC)
choice value
making decisions based on the lens of choice (What does this mean for me?" "How can it contribute to our well-being?"
working memory of emotions/values
cost/benefit assessment
the link between self and others
general emotional response by thought
self-reflection: all of the MPCF
dAnterior Cingulate Cortex dACC (X)
processing of cognitive conflict
sensitive to expectancy violations
emotional distress to pain
the alarm system that recruits the "C" system
In between some of the subcortical structures and other parts of the PFC that are necessary for conscious deliberate control. Whenever there's a conflict, whenever we can't behave in ways that the "X" system can handle it, there's an alarm from the dACC that wakes up the "C" system.,
Striatum
Processing reward
Habit Formation
Learning new things
Information for future behavior
Primary, secondary, and social rewards
money
social
food
Dorsal Striatum
Caudate Nucleus
reward processing
insula
internal states and feelings
Anterior insula - pain network
Physiological and emotional pain
social exclusion
similar experience for physical pain and social pain
vAnterior Cingulate Cortex
responsive to emotional feedback
responsive to social exclusion
Orbito Frontal Cortex
(OFC) also called vMPFC
Registers values - How rewarding is this? Is it something you want to approach or avoid?
part of the PFC below the located close to other parts of the PFC and the BG and AMY
PCC Posterior Cingulate Cortex
decision-making
Basal Ganglia
(X): caudate, putamen, globus pallidus
Skill building, habit learning
Pattern-making in an aggressive, animalistic way
Lateral Temporal Cortex
(
X
)
behavior identification
perception of objects/situations
understanding the scenario, making sense of it
Amygdala
(
X
)
emotional memory
fear and other emotional responses
the brain's emotional control tower
enhances visual attention and processing; it guides our intention to important things and helps us survive
it sends information to the cortex about what's occurring and how it relates to our goals.
evolutionary heritage that helps us survive. Snake/Twig
Anterior Cingulate Cortex
(secretary)
Evaluates the current state and action outcomes to ensure staying on track
Filters what gets to lateral PFC as well as how much of the resources are required to deal with it (secretary)
