Abstract in brief

  • The study explores how sexual objectification affects empathy, finding that people show less emotional response to positive feelings toward sexually objectified women compared to non-objectified women.
  • Using fMRI scans, researchers observed that brain areas involved in experiencing and understanding social pain are less active when participants witness sexually objectified women experiencing social exclusion.
  • The results suggest that sexual objectification reduces empathy, especially for positive emotions, which may contribute to social issues like gender-based violence in modern society.]
