概括
老龄化会损害老鼠对社会新奇事物的偏好,对熟悉的个体有偏见,独立于记忆. 跨磁刺激 (TMS) 在老老鼠中改善了这种社会行为,这表明社会衰老的可修改的神经基础.
科学领域:
- 神经科学是一个神经科学.
- 老年学是一门学科.
- 行为科学 行为科学
背景情况:
- 社会认知对幸福至关重要,但随着年龄的增长而下降,导致孤立.
- 改变的社会行为与认知衰退和痴呆症有关,但因果关系尚未得到充分研究.
- 需要用于社会神经认知衰老的实验模型.
研究的目的:
- 为社会神经认知衰老研究建立一个老鼠模型.
- 研究与年龄相关的社会行为变化及其与认知功能的关系.
- 使用神经调节探索社会衰老的神经基础.
主要方法:
- 一项大规模的行为研究涉及169只年轻和老年长埃文斯老鼠.
- 使用水迷宫测试对空间学习和记忆的评估.
- 通过三室社会互动测试评估社交性和社交新奇的偏好.
- 在老老鼠中使用跨磁刺激 (TMS) 进行神经调节.
主要成果:
- 老龄化选择性地改变了社交新奇的偏好,导致老老鼠的一个亚群的熟悉性偏差.
- 在老老鼠中,社交能力保持正常;社会新奇的变化与空间记忆,焦虑或感觉运动功能无关.
- 在具有先前存在的社会内向性表型的老老鼠中,TMS增强了社会新奇的偏好.
结论:
- 老老鼠表现出保持的社交性,但改变了社交新奇的偏好,与个体差异.
- 社会新奇的偏好变化与海马体记忆脱离,这表明了不同的衰老机制.
- 这些发现为了解和潜在地治疗社会衰老缺陷提供了临床前框架.

Social Exchange Theory

We have discussed why we form relationships, what attracts us to others, and different types of love. But what determines whether we are satisfied with and stay in a relationship? One theory that provides an explanation is social exchange theory. According to social exchange theory, we act as naïve economists in keeping a tally of the ratio of costs and benefits of forming and maintaining a relationship with others (Rusbult & Van Lange, 2003).

Social proof is a form of persuasion based on comparison and conformity. People compare their behavior and actions to what others are doing and will change to conform to do what their peers do.

Social Traps

Social traps are negative situations where people get caught in a direction or relationship that later proves to be unpleasant, with no easy way to back out of or avoid. The concept was orignally introduced by John Platt who applied psychology to Garrett Hardin's "Tragedy of the Commons", where in New England herd owners could let their cattle graze in the common ground. This situation seems like a good idea, but an individual could have an advantage. If they owned...

Social Loafing

Another way in which a group presence can affect performance is social loafing—the exertion of less effort by a person working together with a group. Social loafing occurs when our individual performance cannot be evaluated separately from the group. Thus, group performance declines on easy tasks (Karau & Williams, 1993). Essentially individual group members loaf and let other group members pick up the slack. Because each individual’s efforts cannot be evaluated,...

Social Scripts
10.3K
People tend to know what behavior is expected of them in specific, familiar settings. A script is a person’s knowledge about the sequence of events expected in a specific setting (Schank & Abelson, 1977). Essentially, scripts are a particular kind of schema, one containing default values for the features within an event. In the restaurant example, the script's features include the props (e.g., tables, menu, food, and money), the roles to be played (e.g., customer and waiter),...

The Sense of Self: Reflected Self-Appraisal and Social Comparison
56.1K
According to Charles Cooley, we base our image on what we think other people see (Cooley 1902). We imagine how we must appear to others, then react to this speculation. We don certain clothes, prepare our hair in a particular manner, wear makeup, use cologne, and the like—all with the notion that our presentation of ourselves is going to affect how others perceive us. We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...
