By employing neural pathways, neuroscientists are unraveling the complexities of concepts such as trust, revenge, empathy, prejudice, and identity. This comprehensive third edition of this groundbreaking text has undergone a thorough revision and expansion to encompass the ever-growing body of evidence and theories in the field. Notable additions include a heightened emphasis on genetic influences, hormonal influences, and detailed explanations of methods such as functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), multivariate pattern analysis, and heart-based psychophysiological measures. Furthermore, this edition offers new insights into gender identity and sexuality, constructivist theories of emotion, compassion versus empathy, the dark triad, and altruistic punishment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo support the learning experience, the book is accompanied by an extensively updated companion website. It features a wealth of student resources, including lecture recordings, multiple-choice questions, and valuable web links. Additionally, PowerPoint slides for lecturers are provided to enhance classroom instruction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRichly illustrated in captivating full-color, the text features figures, boxes, and real-world implications of research, making it an ideal introduction to the field for both undergraduate and postgraduate students in psychology and neuroscience. By exploring the intersection of social behavior and neural mechanisms, social neuroscience sheds light on the underlying processes that shape our interactions and relationships with others. This field holds immense potential for understanding and improving human social dynamics, ultimately contributing to a more harmonious and inclusive society.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1090g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 246 x 174 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367523923\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 ed\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jamie Ward","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44105038987514,"sku":"9780367523923","price":133.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1668778183533_book.jpg?v=1668789610","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-students-guide-to-social-neuroscience-9780367523923","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
