Elucidating the ‘shared brain’
Everything we know about how a person’s social identity is formed has been based on conscious processes of measurement and self-assessment (post hoc questionnaires or verbal reports, for example). It is highly likely that the formation of a conscious social identity begins in processes within the unconscious, as decades of research have suggested. “In order to understand how social identity is formed we must investigate processes occurring within both the conscious and unconscious,” Neal Hinvest, director of studies in the department of psychology at the University of Bath, writes on the Leverhulme Trust website. “[Research has] shown that a shared emotional state between interacting individuals is necessary for a shared identity to be formed, and that underlying this shared emotional space is a sharedness in active neural processes which can be visualised by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG).” This project will develop a “visual map” of the emergence of the shared identity, and will provide insight into the unconscious and conscious (emotional) processes instrumental in the development (or degradation) of a shared identity.
