" ... Because of that primal need for connection, our brains react negatively when we feel isolated or excluded. Neuroscientists at UCLA found that when people feel excluded there is corresponding activity in the dorsal portion of the anterior cingulate cortex — the neural region involved in the “suffering” component of pain. In other words, the feeling of being excluded - left out, overlooked, ignored - provokes the same sort of reaction in the brain that physical pain might cause. ... "
" ... In the first session, the participants were shown a series of faces and asked to rate them on how trustworthy they appeared. Next they were told how the group had rated each face for trustworthiness. The MEG imaging showed an immediate change in the posterior cingulate cortex whenever the participant’s rating was a mismatch with the group. And that’s interesting because the posterior cingulate cortex is an area of the brain that monitors conflict and reinforces learning. ... "
" ... Three key parts of our brain are stimulated when we lie. First, the frontal lobe (of the neocortex), which has the ability to suppress truth—yes, it’s capable of dishonesty due to its intellectual role. Second, the limbic system due to the anxiety (hi, amygdala!) that comes with deception—and yes, when we’re lied to our “Spiderman sense” here can perk up, just as we can feel guilty/stressed when we’re doing the lying. And third, the temporal lobe is involved because it’s responsible for retrieving memories and creating mental imagery. Just for fun, add the anterior cingulate cortex because it helps in monitoring errors, and the dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex because it is trying all the while to control our behavior. Our brain is busy, busy, busy when we lie. ... "
