Neuro plasticità del cervello sociale
Neural plasticity of social brain


Vincenzo Manna*, Francesca Dicuonzo**, Stefano Giannini***



SummaryLife events shape the neural circuits underlying social and emotional behavior, from the prenatal period to the end of life. Experiential factors include both incidental influences, such as early adversity, and intentional influences that can be produced in humans through specific interventions designed to promote well-being and prosocial behaviors. Moderate to severe stress appears to increase the growth of several sectors of the amygdala, whereas the effects in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex tend to be opposite. Structural and functional changes in the brain have been observed with cognitive therapy and certain forms of meditation.
Key-words: neural plasticity, social brain.
