TPJ and empathy

Already known:

  • The amount to which a person can understand others' intents and beliefs is correlated with how altruistic they are.
  • Activity in the temporoparietal junction (TPJ) is correlated with the ability to understand others' perspectives.
Confirmed:

The size and activation in the TPJ correlate with altruistic behavior.

  14. An interesting discussion is definitely worth comment.
    I believe that you need to write more about this subject, it might not be a taboo subject but generally people do
