Summary: This study explored the personal and social psychological motivation of Retaliatory Justice from a social psychology perspective and constructed a four-dimensional model of the psychological motivation. The empirical results showed significant effects of Pacifying Outrage and Value Confirmation on Retaliatory Justice, and partial effects of Deterrence and Control and Occupying Resource. The findings have important implications for improving social morality, fostering judicial trust, and building psychological service systems.

Summary: This paper explores the differences in social attention development in children with ASD and proposes alternative conceptual views and hypotheses. Different models are discussed, including one focusing on spontaneous allocation of attention and another emphasizing attention coordination with others. Additionally, the paper considers the possibility that social attention symptoms may not impact older individuals with ASD and suggests that these symptoms may stem from differences in domain general attention and motivation mechanisms. The authors argue that infant social attention symptoms meet the criteria of a unique dimension of the ASD phenotype.

Summary: This review outlines the research findings in the field of social neuroscience in the past three decades and introduces the emerging discipline of network neuroscience. By integrating information across different brain regions and systems, leveraging methods from network neuroscience and graph theory can advance our understanding of how brain systems give rise to social behavior.

Summary: Research in neuroscience and neuroengineering has seen a surge of interest in recent decades. Optical fiber based technologies offer a viable and versatile tool for studying the brain, with potential applications in clinical settings. The small size, flexibility, and light weight of optical fibers make them ideal for understanding complex behaviors in living mammals.

Summary: Intersectionality argues that sex/gender is influenced by other social categories and needs to be taken into account when studying inequality. While neuroscience has largely ignored this perspective, psychology has been engaging with it for more than a decade. This critical analysis explores potential research avenues for neurofeminism guided by intersectionality, focusing on socio-structural causes of health inequalities, psychological processing of social group memberships, and challenging psychological epistemology. The parallel drawn between psychology and neuroscience highlights the potential benefits and risks of incorporating an intersectionality-informed approach in neurofeminism.

Summary: With the popularity of social media platforms worldwide, virtual social network platforms have increasingly played a significant role in cross-cultural communication. This study analyzes the motivation, mechanisms, and effects of communication on social media across cultures, primarily from the perspectives of psychology and neuroscience. However, the current research mainly focuses on studying cultural psychology and neuroscience separately, without integrating the discipline of cross-cultural communication on social media.

Summary: The study found that emerging adults' motivations for social justice engagement include political climate, self-efficacy, social support, proximity to social issues, knowledge of resources, and limited personal resources. Their social identities also shape how they engage with specific social issues, with multiple privileged and marginalized identities playing a significant role.

Summary: This paper uses an assemblage theoretical approach to critically analyze Norwegian land-based wind power policies, exploring the influences and resistances in energy transition policies. Wind power policies are mainly shaped by energy authorities, developers, and interest organizations, while being challenged by the voices of local governments, environmental organizations, and concerned citizens. Increased conflicts and public debates are prompting national politicians to reassess wind power policies and consider its role in local, national, and global energy transitions.

Summary: Learning in humans is mainly social, and yet in cognitive science and neuroscience, it is predominantly studied in isolation. This review article focuses on social human learning, specifically how we acquire semantic knowledge from and with others. It also identifies potential cognitive mechanisms and their neural correlates, aiming to explore new directions in investigating learning within the context of social interaction.

Summary: Food waste is a significant issue with ecological, economic, and social consequences. However, there is a lack of understanding regarding how to motivate consumers to avoid food waste. This paper addresses this gap by developing a 21-item Motivation to Avoid Food Waste (MAFW) scale, which includes four motivations: environmental, moral, financial, and social. Three studies demonstrate the scale's reliability and validity.

Summary: This study systematically reviews how neuroscientific evidence is considered in sentencing decisions of New South Wales criminal courts. A comprehensive search on three databases identified 331 relevant sentencing decisions discussing neuroscientific evidence before 2016. The findings indicate that neuroscientific evidence appeared to contribute to sentencing decisions in less than half of the cases examined, with the majority supporting a more lenient sentence.

Summary: Sharing emotional experiences impacts how we perceive and interact with the world, and positive stimuli may be more salient when experienced together. The medial prefrontal cortex showed increased response in the joint condition, while the amygdala and superior temporal sulcus exhibited greater neural synchrony in the joint compared to solo conditions during positive videos.
