Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the present study, the brain activity of young adults was measured while they evaluated the schema of their parents by using fMRI. In addition, the schema of their parents, the parenting style in childhood, and the self-esteem were measured. Then, the correlations between these scores and the brain activities were examined for each of the female and male, and for all of them. As a result, each group showed different brain activation for their mother and father. The female young adults showed the brain activation related to emotional control and mentalizing during the evaluation of negative schema of their mothers. In addition to that, it was shown that female self-esteem might be related to the schema of mother. On the other hand, the females showed brain activation in the region involved in cognitive evaluation based on social distance while they evaluated the schema of their fathers. These results suggest that females establish a specific relationship with their mothers.
