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.
