A new collaboration explores the neural substrates of blushing in a MRI scanner.
A new collaboration between researchers from the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience , the University of Amsterdam and the University of Chieti explores the neural substrates of blushing in a MRI scanner.
"Blushing is a really interesting phenomenon because we still don't know which cognitive skills are needed for it to occur," developmental psychologist Nikolic explains."There's this idea in psychology that dates back to Darwin, who said that blushing occurs when we think about what other people think of us, which involves relatively complex cognitive skills.
Surprisingly, there was no activation in areas that are traditionally known to be involved in the process of understanding the mental state of oneself or others."Based on this we concluded that thinking about others' thoughts may not be necessary for blushing to occur" Nikolic concludes."Blushing may be a part of the automatic arousal you feel when you are exposed and there is something that is relevant to the self.
