Organizing findings from social cognition and social neuroscience in schizophrenia
• Work on social cognition in schizophrenia has exploded
• > 200 cites in PubMed every year from 2011-2015.
• Work on social neuroscience in schizophrenia is expanding
• Can only conduct an informative review in last couple of years.
![Page 5: Michael Green - Social Cognition in Schizophrenia](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070509/589c6a481a28abe96c8b51d1/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Organizing findings from social cognition and social neuroscience in schizophrenia
What the review intended to do: • Provide a framework to organize the
findings.• Help to identify consistencies, failures to
replicate, or patterns across systems.• Identify what is intact versus impaired in
schizophrenia.
What the review did not intend to do:• Provide a mechanistic explanation of social
processing dysfunction in schizophrenia. • Identify new social processing systems.

Which social processing systems, among many, to consider?
1. Consensus among social neuroscientists that system is partly distinct from others (e.g. non-social) and important for social processing.
2. Sufficient clinical research of the system to allow inferences about social processing in schizophrenia.

Social Cue PerceptionThis system involves accurate identification of social information conveyed in cues from faces, voices, body movements / gestures, gait etc.For the review, we considered:
1. Face emotion perception2. Prosody (voice) perception
Schizophrenia patients show impairment on both types of tasks.

Experience SharingThe simple act of observing others’ behaviors leads us to experience neural activations that correspond to those that occur when we execute these behaviors1. Motor resonance -- while observing or executing
motor actions, input is compared with stored motor representations for actions.
2. Affect sharing -- shared processes are also engaged during the perception of emotional behaviors.

MentalizingMentalizing (also called theory of mind or mental state attribution)
Understanding others requires one to take other people’s viewpoints into account and to make inferences about their mental states (including intentions, beliefs and emotions) based on available social cues.

Mentalizing and fMRI
John told Emily that he had a
Porsche. Actually, his car is a Ford.
Emily doesn’t know anything about
cars though, so she believed John.
When Emily sees John’s car, she
thinks it is:
Porsche Ford
False picture condition condition
Amy made a painting of a tree house three years ago when it was blue. That was before the storm. We built a new treehouse last summer, but we painted it red instead.
The treehouse in the painting is:
red blue
In both cases, a false representation leads to a correct answer.
Mentalizing / Theory of Mind: the mental capacity to represent one’s own mind and others’ mental state (i.e., belief, emotion, intention). Large pt-control effect sizes in performance (.96).False belief condition

Emotion Experience and Regulation
Emotion Experience in Schizophrenia is Intact:
Patients report diminished pleasure on interview and trait measures
However, patients report and show normal responses (self-report and physiological) when exposed to pleasant stimuli. But… might experience greater negative
responses to neutral stimuli.
![Page 20: Michael Green - Social Cognition in Schizophrenia](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070509/589c6a481a28abe96c8b51d1/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Emotion Regulation• Emotion regulation -- processes by which
people influence which emotion is experienced, when it is experienced, and how it is experienced.
• The most extensively studied regulation strategy is cognitive reappraisal. That involves changing one’s interpretations or appraisals of stimuli to alter an emotional response.

Emotion Regulation in Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder
People with schizophrenia showed reduced activation in vlPFC during cognitive reappraisal; people with bipolar disorder showed increased activation.

When Systems Work Together: Empathy as an Emergent PhenomenonEmpathy-- sharing, understanding, and responding to the unique emotional experiences of another person. It depends on multiple components. • Experience sharing
• Affective empathy• Mentalizing
• Cognitive empathy• Other components:
• Emotion regulation (to be less empathic)• Prosocial motivation (takes resources)• Social cue perception• Empathic accuracy

Patterns of intact vs impaired activity across social processing systems
• Social cognition can be divided into reflective and reflexive social processes.
• Reflective require effortful controlled processing. These social processes are impaired in schizophrenia -- perception of face and voice social cues, mentalizing, emotion regulation.
• Reflexive require less mental effort than the other social processes. These social processes that are intact or partially intact in schizophrenia – motor resonance, affect sharing, and emotion experience.

Questions for Discussion• What are the shared and distinct contributions from social and
non-social processing systems? • What are the implications of this framework for self-other
processing?• What are the neural mechanisms for reflective versus reflexive
social processing?• What is the role of social context on patient – control
differences? • What is the role of negative emotion in social cognitive
impairment in schizophrenia?• Where does connectivity break down in schizophrenia: within
regions, between regions, between systems?• Does this framework apply to social cognitive impairment in
other neuropsychiatric disorders?• Can interventions be targeted for specific social processing
systems?
