Age, independent of puberty, was associated with activity in the DMPFC during social relative to basic emotion processing.
We found significant associations between levels of testosterone, oestradiol and DHEA and BOLD signal in the left ATC during social relative to basic emotion processing.
Across the whole sample, we observed greater BOLD signal during social than during basic emotion processing in areas of the mentalizing network (DMPFC and pSTS/TPJ).
We found an age-related decrease in activity within DMPFC during Social versus Basic emotion processing that was unrelated to puberty hormone concentration.
We have demonstrated that arMPFC shows functional connectivity with pSTS/TPJ and ATC during social relative to basic emotion processing, in both adolescents and adults.
Our previous conventional analysis showed that components of the mentalising system, namely arMPFC, pSTS/TPJ and ATC, were more active during social than during basic emotion processing (Burnett et al., 2008).

Gur, R. C. et al. Brain activation during facial emotion processing.
In sum, the literature on the emotion processing deficit in alexithymic individuals demonstrates that alexithymia influences not only the conscious processing of emotion, but that aberrant emotion processing is evident already at very early, automatic processing stages.
The SF amygdala is known to be sub-specialized into directing the attention towards socially relevant stimuli and processing the basic emotion of disgust [ 19].
In addition to these regions, which are probably part of a basic network sensitive to emotion processing and individual variation in trait anxiety, activity in the vmPFC also deserves further consideration.
Emotion processing (EP) and theory of mind (ToM) are hypothesized to influence real-world behavior more directly than basic cognition and represent important targets of intervention.
