Placing a higher value on the welfare of others distinguishes real-world altruists. Unsurprisingly, effective interventions in this area will pose a challenge for the field. Thanks @shawnrhoadsphd for leading one of my favorite LSAN projects!

In prior work, we found that one of the features best distinguishing real-world extraordinary altruists from controls is their reduced social discounting:

Neural responses underlying this pattern had not been examined until now

New findings about extraordinary altruists' religious beliefs and beliefs in other people by @PaigeAmormino @kmo5128 @KrutiVekaria and @ELRobertson16. Altruists are mainly distinguished by being less likely to believe other people can be truly evil. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Thanks for the wonderful discussion!
When COVID shut down #painresearch in labs, Katie O'Connell took her studies online with innovative #pain testing in subjects via zoom. Great talk today in the Human Pain Series hosted by @massihmoayedi and discussion from @kren27 @laurenatlas @Geha_Paul painresearchcentre.org/human…

📢📢 Check out our newest preprint on individual differences in social reinforcement learning. We report that antisociality is associated with reduced sensitivity to losing money for a study partner.

We identified 3 conceptually and motivationally coherent types of prosocial decisions: cooperation, equity, and altruism.
Meta-analytic results across 43 fMRI studies (1423 subjects) further supported this: each prosocial decision type recruited largely different neural regions.

Wonderfully insightful plenary by George Koob for @SIPSPlacebo today. Neatly bridged topics from addiction to pain to conditioning to social isolation and allostasis. WOTD is #hyperkatifeia - hypersensitivity to emotional distress especially during drug withdrawal #SIPS2021

6/7 This was a small sample and the work continues in our group and others. Of course, emotion recognition isn’t the only potential problem after right-hemisphere stroke, but perhaps emo recognition training could be relatively easy to implement (even online) and helpful?
