How is the human brain shaped by our sociocultural experiences?
What neural correlates underlie the extraordinary cultural
diversity of human behavior? How do our genes interact with
sociocultural experiences to moderate human brain functional
organization and behavior? This Sociocultural Brain provides a new
perspective on human brain functional organization, highlighting
the role of human sociocultural experience and its interaction with
genes in shaping human brain and behavior. Drawing on cutting edge
research from the burgeoning field of cultural neuroscience, it
reveals the cross-cultural differences in human brain activity that
underlye a multitude of cognitive and affective processes -
including visual perception/attention, memory, causal attribution,
inference of others' mental states, self-reflection, and empathy.
In addition, it presents studies that integrate brain imaging and
cultural priming to explore the causal relationship between culture
and brain functional organization. The book ends with a discussion
of the implications of cultural neuroscience findings for
understanding the nature of human brain and culture, as well as the
implications for education, cross-cultural communication and
conflict, and the clinical treatment of mental disorders.
