<u>Social</u> neuroscience seeks to identify the neural basis of social behavior and looks at how we can illuminate our understanding of groups, interpersonal relations, and emotions by understanding their cognitive underpinnings.
Explanation:
Social neuroscience can be defined as the interdisciplinary study of multilevel neurobiological processes (nervous, endocrine, immune) that allow us to interact with the social world, of how neurobiological events affect psychosocial processes and how these, in turn, have effects at the biological level, that is, it addresses fundamental questions about the mind and its dynamic interactions with the biological systems of the brain and the social world in which it resides. This field studies the relationship between neural and social processes, including the intermediate components of information processing and operations at the levels of neural and computational analysis.
Social neuroscience refers to an interdisciplinary field that tries to understand how biological systems affect social processes as well as behavior. This interdisciplinary field also uses some biological methods to clarify some theories related to social processes and behavior.
Humans are considered social species. This is the reason why Homo sapiens established something called emergent organizations that could be families, civilizations or cultures. These emergent organizations evolved through the utilization of neural and hormonal mechanisms, and in this way, the social behaviors established after that helped many organisms to survive and to reproduce.
