People are embedded in social interaction that shapes their brains throughout lifetime.
Instead of emerging from lower-level cognitive functions, social interaction could be the …

This paper reviews the published literature on the hyperscanning methodologies using
hemodynamic or neuro-electric modalities. In particular, we describe how different brain …

Hyperscanning—simultaneous brain scanning of two or more individuals—holds great
promise in elucidating the neurobiological underpinnings of social cognitive functions. This …

processes.•Synchrony of brain activity may underlie shared mental states.•Similarity of brain …

In order to understand ecologically meaningful social behaviors and their neural substrates
in humans and other animals, researchers have been using a variety of social stimuli in the …

The evolution of human cognitive function is reliant on complex social interactions which
form the behavioural foundation of who we are. These social capacities are subject to …

Social cognition is a dynamic process that requires the perception and integration of a
complex set of idiosyncratic features between interacting conspecifics. Here we present a …

Human social activity is a continuous dynamic behavior consisting of live social signal
exchanges; thus, studying interactions among multiple humans is critical to understanding …

The ability to flexibly modulate our behaviors in social contexts and to successfully interact
with other persons is a fundamental, but pivotal, requirement for human survival. Although …

Studying the neural basis of human social interactions is a key topic in the field of social
neuroscience. Brain imaging studies in this field usually focus on the neural correlates of the …
