“For example, Decety and Jackson (2004, 2006) have postulated that empathy involves an affective component, a cognitive component, and the ability to distinguish self from other, and suggest that the RH may be especially involved in selfother awareness.”

“…studies that have reported gender differences in the brain during tasks designed to elicit empathy have suggested than men and women may not differ in overall empathic capacity so much as the types of situations under which empathy is elicited (Fukushima & Hiraki , 2006; Singer et al., 2006).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
