“…Evidence indicated that FPA (BA10) is significant in self-other social interactions (Ruby and Decety, 2004). Besides, functions of Broca's area (BA45) have been expanded beyond verbal cognition, such as motion observation (Caspers et al, 2010) and involvement in cooperation (Zhou et al, 2022). Our results further enrich the social functions of the Broca's area (BA45).…”

BackgroundEvidence showed neural changes in interpersonal distance (IPD) interaction, and neural activities are affected by relationships (such as friends or strangers). Behavior studies proved that social status strongly affects IPD between two persons. However, how the differing social status impacts neural alterations in the IPD interactions remains unknown.ObjectivesThe teacher-student relationship is a typical representation of the difference in social status. The present study aims to investigate the IPD performance and brain processes underlying real-time differing social status during the development process from teacher-student interactions.Materials and methodsWe designed three within-subject experiments corresponding to the inclusion, control, and affection stages of IPD. Altogether, 38 valid healthy participants participated in three experiments with a teacher (differing social status condition, DS condition) and a peer student (peer social status condition, PS condition) separately. This study employed functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and modified real-time stop-distance paradigms to record IPD performance and neural processes.ResultsFor IPD performance, significantly larger IPD gaps were shown in the DS condition than in the PS condition, and IPD feedback affected IPD performance. For neural alterations, activated frontopolar area (FPA, BA10), dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC, BA9/BA46), and Broca’s area (BA45) were observed across the IPD stages. Importantly, brain activation shifts with the development of IPD. In addition, results showed that differences in Oxy-Hb changes were located in the FPA (BA10), DLPFC (BA9/BA46), and Broca’s area (BA45) between the DS and PS conditions across IPD stages. Additionally, negative correlations were found between Oxy-Hb changes and IPD performance.ConclusionWe propose prefrontal cortex (PFC) and Broca’s area involvement in IPD interactions, initially focusing on evaluation and action periods, and later on IPD-evaluation processes after feedback. In addition, a difference in Oxy-Hb activities implies the complexity of relationships and social status in IPD interactions.

“…(3) By tracking the progression of working memory tasks, fNIRS revealed a link between brain activity and task performance (Meidenbauer et al, 2021). During cooperative tasks, better task performance was associated with interpersonal brain synchronization (Zhou et al, 2022). Patients with schizophrenia (SZ) performed worse on the VFT than patients with MDD and healthy controls, and patients performed worse on the Tower of London task than healthy controls (Xiang et al, 2021).…”

ObjectiveTo summarize the general information and hotspots of functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS)-based clinical disease research over the past 10 years and provide some references for future research.MethodsThe related literature published between 1 January 2011 and 31 January 2022 was retrieved from the Web of Science core database (WoS). Bibliometric visualization analysis of countries/regions, institutions, authors, journals, keywords and references were conducted by using CiteSpace 6.1.R3.ResultsA total of 467 articles were included, and the annual number of articles published over nearly a decade showed an upward trend year-by-year. These articles mainly come from 39 countries/regions and 280 institutions. The representative country and institution were the USA and the University of Tubingen. We identified 266 authors, among which Andreas J Fallgatter and Ann-Christine Ehlis were the influential authors. Neuroimage was the most co-cited journal. The major topics in fNIRS disease research included activation, prefrontal cortex, working memory, cortex, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). In recent years, the Frontier topics were executive function, functional connectivity, performance, diagnosis, Alzheimer’s disease, children, and adolescents. Based on the burst of co-cited references, gait research has received much attention.ConclusionThis study conducted a comprehensive, objective, and visual analysis of publications, and revealed the status of relevant studies, hot topics, and trends concerning fNIRS disease research from 2011 to 2022. It is hoped that this work would help researchers to identify new perspectives on potential collaborators, important topics, and research Frontiers.

“…One limitation of "averaged" measures is that do not consider changes in IBC that reflect the dynamic nature of social interaction. Thus, researchers have recently proposed a novel analytical approach that captures dynamic changes in IBC ("Dynamic Inter-brain Coherence"; Li et al, 2021;S. Zhou et al, 2022).…”

A growing number of social interactions are taking place virtually on video conferencing platforms. Here, we explore potential effects of virtual interactions on observed behavior, subjective experience, and neural "single-brain" and "inter-brain" activity via functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) neuroimaging. We scanned a total of 72 participants (36 dyads) who engaged with their partner in three naturalistic tasks (i.e., problem-solving, creative-innovation, socio-emotional task), in either an in-person or virtual (Zoom) condition. We also coded cooperative behavior from audio recordings. We found increased and sustained prefrontal activation in the virtual condition, potentially providing a neural basis of "Zoom fatigue". We also observed reduced behavioral cooperation (i.e., conversational turn-taking), and altered patterns of averaged and dynamic inter-brain coherence, in virtual interactions. Inter-brain coherence patterns that were characteristic of the virtual condition were associated with reduced behavioral cooperation. These insights can inform the design and engineering of the next generation of video conferencing technology.
