The mPFC and TPJ are crucial for understanding others’ mental states. Constant exposure may blunt these faculties. The mirror neuron system, which helps with emotional resonance, can become underused or misdirected—leading to apathy, performative outrage, or desensitization.

The mPFC and TPJ are crucial for understanding others’ mental states. Constant exposure may blunt these faculties. The mirror neuron system, which helps with emotional resonance, can become underused or misdirected—leading to apathy, performative outrage, or desensitization.

The "mirror neuron system" would be a useful tool here. The ICE ppl see your fear and anger and they experience it as their own. (YOU don't see the ICE fear and anger because of their masks.) It would be interesting to see if you could give these guys PTSD if you had the right costume.

Despite the vast spectrum of human minds, we try to empathize. But can we ever do so perfectly? And is the mirror neuron system enough to explain empathy? Tune in to the full episode of Inner Cosmos to discover how we (try to) step into each other's shoes. eagleman.com/podcast/102 #brain #empathy

The mirror neuron system supports empathy and attunement to others. Imagine talking with an AI nurse and feeling that you are merely a simulation of something. As though that's how hospital administrators who "employ" AI nurses think of patients, as things.

Everyone has a mirror neuron system (source of empathy). The mirror neuron system can become less effective if it's not exercised or engaged. The mirror neuron system is shaped by early experiences and can be impacted by isolation, trauma, ASD, etc. Can be strengthened, re-trained in some cases.

Effective leaders act as role models, influencing behaviors and attitudes through a powerful blend of neuroscience and psychology. The mirror neuron system allows us to mimic observed behaviors, making leaders' actions crucial in shaping workplace culture www.peoplekult.com/post/the-pow...
