Le ricerche recenti (Eisenberg et al., 2012, 2003) hanno dimostrato, attraverso l'utilizzo di immagini di risonanza magnetica funzionale (fMRI), l'attivazione di circuiti neurali nel cervello umano a causa dell'esperienza del dolore sociale, in corrispondenza delle stesse aree attivate durante una esperienza di dolore fisico.

Abstract:
Shared characteristics and predictors of psychological distress are beginning to be identified in research on women seeking genetic testing for BRCA1 and BRCA2 gene mutations. This study further explored patterns of psychological distress for 51 community women waiting to receive such genetic test results. There was no significant relationship between psychological distress and family cancer history, personal cancer history, social support networks, and family environment. Women in this sample tended to rely more on females and relatives for support than males and friends. Social support satis

This concept is an understudied area, and is recognised to exhibit high levels of complexity which make it difficult to evaluate.
