So in my lab, we bring adolescents and adults into the lab to have a brain scan, we give them some kind of task that involves thinking about other people, their minds, their mental states, their emotions, and one of the findings that we've found several times now, as have other labs around the world, is part of the prefrontal cortex called medial prefrontal cortex, which is shown in blue on the slide, and it's right in the middle of prefrontal cortex in the midline of your head.
Al laboratorio traemos a adolescentes y a adultos para hacerles un escáner cerebral, les damos alguna tarea que involucre pensar sobre otras personas, sus estados mentales, sus emociones. Y uno de los resultados constatado varias veces, al igual que en otros laboratorios en todo el mundo, concierne a la zona de la corteza prefrontal llamada corteza prefrontal mesial, en azul en la diapositiva, y está justo en medio de la corteza prefrontal en la línea media de la cabeza.
