Can We Trust Statistics in fMRI Studies?
PLOS
An opinon piece on one of the most celebrated yet methodologically complex measures we have to assess brain activity. This article addresses the stastical pitfalls of fMRI studies. The large-scale Human Connectome Project which utilized fMRI is also mentioned.
The Emergent Properties of The Connected Brain
Science
This article describes how neuroscience currently defines the region to region interactions within the brain. The nature of the connections within the brain define it's functionality. Analyzing region to region interactions can further our experimental and predictive abilities as scientists.
The Next 50 Years of Neuroscience
journal of neuroscience
An overview of the field of neuroscience in the last fifty years, starting with the founding of the Society for Neuroscience (SfN) in 1969. The article details the progression of subfields such as development, cellular and molecular neuroscience, systems neuroscience, and neurodegenerative diseases.

Beliefs About The Nonverbal Expression of Social Power.
American psychological Association
Two studies examined the role social power has on beliefs about nonverbal behavior and communication skills. The researchers defined power as both a trait (i.e., personality dominance) and a role (i.e., rank within an organization). Seventy nonverbal behaviors were analyzed. Significant differences emerged for 35 of the 70 behaviors based on social power.
Strategic Regulation of Empathy
cell press journal
An assessment of the current strategies used in empathy research. They posit new approaches should be taken when studying empathy to allow for finer-grained examination. Similarly, they propose that the field of empathy would benefit from the discrete characterization of the strucutral and temporal components that give rise to empathy.

From Coaching to Neurocoaching: A Neuroscientific Approach During a Coaching Session to Assess the Relational Dynamics between Coach and Coaches
mdpi
A pilot study using EEG to measure the impact of Neurocoaching (also, neuroscience-based coaching). 14 university students were paired with a professional coach where they used EEG and skin conductance measures to investigate affective state changes. The researchers have preliminary evidence that neurophysiologial evidence can aid the coaching process.
Toward a Second-Person Neuroscience
cambridge core
This article intoduces a theoretical conception of a so called second-person approach to neuroscience: to the study of another mind. In the study of social interaction, there is a push towards this 'second-person' approach. This approach differentiates between social observation (seeing interaction) and social engagement (interacting) in the experimental process. Not only will this promote growth in the field of social neuroscience but also provide a new avenue for diagnosing and understanding psychiatric disorders.
