Adult attachment style modulates neural responses in a mentalizing task

Highlights • The neural correlates of mentalizing were investigated using an interactive task. • Impact of adult attachment styles “avoidance” (AV) and “anxiety” (ANX) was examined. • AV was positively and ANX negatively correlated with task-associated neural activity. • Avoidantly attached adults a...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • The neural correlates of mentalizing were investigated using an interactive task. • Impact of adult attachment styles “avoidance” (AV) and “anxiety” (ANX) was examined. • AV was positively and ANX negatively correlated with task-associated neural activity. • Avoidantly attached adults activated brain areas implicated in emotion regulation.
