“…In the Dictator Game employed here, the only biological stimuli associated with players are headshots with neutral facial expressions. However, neural resonance is correlated with prosocial behavior in circumstances involving similarly sparse biological stimuli (Christov-Moore & Iacoboni, 2015; Hein, Silani, Preuschoff, Batson, & Singer, 2012; Hein, Lamm, Brodbeck, & Singer, 2011; Ma, Wang, & Han, 2011). The relative presence of biological stimuli likely has an effect on our prosocial inclinations, since biological stimuli as sparse as a photograph have been found to increase charitable donations (Genevsky, Daniel, Paul, & Knutson, 2013).…”

“…The right DLPFC and DMPFC regions-of-interest (ROI) were constructed in standard space (MNI 152 template) using 10mm diameter spheres centered on voxels in right DLPFC (x = 40mm, y = 24mm, z = 38mm) and right DMPFC (x = 8mm, y = 24mm, z = 54mm). These ROI’s were centered on coordinates where activation during affective and somatosensory neural resonance tasks showed the highest correlation with subjects’ modulation of DG offers in response to players’ SES in a prior experiment (Christov-Moore & Iacoboni, 2015). That is, the activity of these areas during neural resonance tasks was correlated with the tendency to share less money with high SES players, compared to low SES players, in the DG.…”

“…After all, accepting an unfair offer also results in a larger payoff for the opposing player. Indeed, we propose that our prepotent impulse in costly sharing paradigms is towards prosocial decisions, fostered by reflexive forms of empathy that are tonically and contextually inhibited by prefrontal systems involved in top-down control (Christov-Moore & Iacoboni, 2015). …”

Recent research suggests that prosocial outcomes in sharing games arise from prefrontal control of self-maximizing impulses. We used continuous Theta Burst Stimulation (cTBS) to disrupt the functioning of two prefrontal areas, the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (DMPFC). We used cTBS in the right MT/V5, as a control area. We then tested subjects’ prosocial inclinations with an unsupervised Dictator Game in which they allocated real money anonymously between themselves and low and high socioeconomic status (SES) players. cTBS over the two prefrontal sites made subjects more generous compared to MT/V5. More specifically, cTBS over DLPFC increased offers to high SES players, while cTBS over DMPFC caused increased offers to low SES players. These data, the first to demonstrate an effect of disruptive neuromodulation on costly sharing, suggest that DLPFC and MPFC exert inhibitory control over prosocial inclinations during costly sharing, though they may do so in different ways. DLPFC may implement contextual control, while DMPFC may implement a tonic form of control. This study demonstrates that humans’ prepotent inclination is toward prosocial outcomes when cognitive control is reduced, even when prosocial decisions carry no strategic benefit and concerns for reputation are minimized.

“…Distinct mechanisms for perceiving and experiencing emotions are found to be processed the same way which implies that we are more than appraising the emotions of others but experiencing them. Neural resonance is how it is thought this phenomenon of mirroring others is achieved, with implications to groupthink, emotional contagion and the core process to empathy (Christov-Moore and Iacoboni, 2015).…”

“…An action performed for which motor neurons fire can also induce firing in the motor neurons of another merely through observation (Ramachandran, 2000). In addition, the interchanging of these firing motor neurons, which are facilitated by the mirror neurons, can be shown to improve associating learning, acting as a primer (Christov-Moore and Iacoboni, 2015).…”

'Show me the compassion!' Changing the organisational mind within construction industry

The construction industry is highly adversarial, with multiple parties each with their own agenda and needs drowning in the sea of uncertainty. This paper, through an extended literature review, introduced a theoretical model of how the organisational mind can influence organisational culture, with implications for all aspects of the construction industry. Finding new and innovative ways of building is going to take the shared experience of all the minds within the 'organisation'. The outcomes of the research show that certain mental attributes are trained as a result of practicing self-compassion, compassion, empathy, perspective and mindfulness. Those practices for example and others potentially enable the culture within the organisation to flow through imitative learning, having a positive effect on stakeholders who interact.Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Barrett, D. and Khalfan, M.M.A. (2018) ''Show me the compassion!'

Not all group decision and negotiation agreements are right solutions. In order to take a right decision and find a right solution to a problem, one has to first of all define the right problem. This chapter presents the evolution of a dynamic problemrestructuring for definition of right problem/solution in group decision and negotiation and its manifestation in communication. It starts with a summary
