Brain mechanisms underlying the impact of attachment-related stress on social cognition
Open accessAbstract
Mentalizing, in particular the successful attribution of complex mental states to others, is crucial for navigating social interactions. This ability is highly influenced by external factors within one's daily life, such as stress. We investigated the impact of stress on the brain basis of mentalization in adults. Using a novel modification of the Reading the Mind in the Eyes Test (RMET-R) we compared the differential effects of two personalized stress induction procedures: a general stress induction (GSI) and an attachment-related stress induction (ASI). Participants performed the RMET-R at baseline and after each of the two inductions. Baseline results replicated and extended previous findings regarding the neural correlates of the RMET-R. Additionally, we identified brain regions associated with making complex age judgments from the same stimuli. Results after stress exposure showed that the ASI condition resulted in reduced mentalization-related activation in the left posterior superior temporal sulcus (STS), left inferior frontal gyrus and left temporoparietal junction (TPJ). Moreover, the left middle frontal gyrus and left anterior insula showed greater functional connectivity to the left posterior STS after the ASI. Our findings indicate that attachment-related stress has a unique effect on the neural correlates of mentalization.

TL;DR
This fMRI study compared attachment-related stress induction (ASI) with general stress induction (GSI) on mentalization using a revised Reading the Mind in the Eyes Test. ASI reduced mental-state accuracy and decreased activation in left posterior STS, left IFG, and left TPJ, with altered left posterior STS functional connectivity.
Key findings
- At baseline, mental state > age judgments activated bilateral IFG (right t = 6.75; left t = 10.04), right posterior STS (t = 5.43), left posterior STS (t = 8.56), and dorsoMPFC (t = 6.51), among other regions; age > mental state judgments activated bilateral inferior parietal lobules, PCC/precuneus, right DLPFC, right inferior temporal gyrus, and left cerebellum.
- Mental-state correct responses differed across conditions (F(2,24) = 3.59, p = 0.04), with lowest accuracy post-ASI (67.03%) vs baseline (74.70%) and post-GSI (74.98%); baseline vs post-ASI t(12) = 2.30, p < 0.05, and post-GSI vs post-ASI t(12) = 2.20, p < 0.05. Mental-state reaction times also differed (F(2,24) = 10.13, p = 0.01), with longest at baseline and shortest post-ASI. Age judgments showed no significant differences.
- Post-ASI vs post-GSI during mental-state judgments showed reduced activation in left IFG (t = −2.93, p = 0.011; did not survive cluster correction), left posterior STS (t = −5.02, p < 0.001), and left TPJ (t = −4.83, p < 0.001). During age judgments, only left TPJ differed (t = −5.08, p < 0.001).
- After ASI vs GSI, mental-state judgments showed greater functional connectivity to left posterior STS in left MFG (t = 4.90, p < 0.001) and left anterior insula (t = 5.24, p < 0.001). During age judgments, cuneus showed greater post-ASI connectivity, while bilateral anterior insula, right MTG/PHG/FFG, right dorsal ACC, and left FFG showed greater post-GSI connectivity.
Methods
- Eighteen healthy right-handed adults were recruited; 15 remained for fMRI analysis (8 male; mean age 20.73 years, SD = 1.20, range 18–23), and behavioral analyses included 13 participants. Participants completed three fMRI runs: baseline, post-GSI, and post-ASI, with order balanced across participants. Personalized stress imagery scripts were created from recalled events rated 8 or above on a 10-point perceived stress scale.
- The task was a revised RMET (RMET-R) with mental-state and age-judgment blocks; stimuli were shown for 3500 ms with 500 ms fixation, six trials per block, four blocks per task per condition. fMRI data were analyzed in Brain Voyager QX using random-effects GLMs; baseline mental state vs age contrast used FDR q < 0.05 with clusters ≥ 4 voxels. Stressor comparisons used a baseline-derived mask and paired t-tests (p < 0.05, cluster ≥ 4 voxels); PPI connectivity used a left posterior STS seed with cluster threshold 34 voxels.
Limitations
- The paper states: the sample was relatively small (15 fMRI, 13 behavioral, 12 overlapping), preventing direct behavior–fMRI correlations and gender-difference analyses; the age control task’s difficulty/cognitive load was not well quantified; the sample lacked ethnic and developmental diversity; no psychophysiological indices such as heart rate variability or cortisol were reported; and the design cannot rule out other induced emotions, general social-script effects, positive-script priming, or whether effects are due to social vs non-social stressor nature or individual attachment differences.
- The text also makes evident that the left IFG stress effect did not survive cluster correction, and behavioral data were lost for three participants due to software errors.

The modified age-judgment task is a valid control for mental state judgments, isolating mentalization-related processes.
“This modification was implemented in order to increase the difficulty of the control task, rendering it more comparable to the experimental task.”
The paper relies on this without support.
The attachment-related and general stress inductions induced comparable levels of general stress, so differences between them can be attributed to attachment-related content rather than stress intensity.
“While we took efforts to match the inductions on the level of induced stress, we do not have data that speak to the simultaneous induction of other emotions and underpinning neural networks that may have occurred with more intensity during ASI (such as fear, anger, sadness, or a complex combination thereof).”
The paper relies on this without support.
The age judgment task and the mental state judgment task are comparable in difficulty or cognitive load, so differential activation can be interpreted as task-specific.
“limitations related to the age task should be addressed in future studies by using a task for which the difficulty or cognitive load between task and control task can be quantified better.”
Claims other papers make about this one
Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
In the citing paper
“A recent neuroimaging study converges with this notion in finding that the nature of the stressor (interpersonal vs. non-interpersonal) significantly impacted the recruitment of brain regions involved in mentalizing (Nolte et al., 2013).”
From Investigating the association between parental reflective functioning and distress tolerance in motherhood. (2015) · cites this paper as Nolte et al., 2013
Statistics recomputed
Every reported test result, recomputed from its test statistic and degrees of freedom. A result shows as not adding up only once an independent check has confirmed it.
- Consistentt(14) = 1.07reported p = .34 · recomputed p = .303
“t(14) = 1.07, p = .34”
The paper states a false-discovery-rate adjustment
- Consistentt(12) = 0.21reported p = .84 · recomputed p = .837
“t(12) = 0.21, p = .84”
- Consistentt(12) = 1.89reported p = .08 · recomputed p = .083
“t(12) = 1.89, p = .08”
- Consistentt(12) = 2.3reported p < .05 · recomputed p = .040
“t(12) = 2.30, p < .05”
- Consistentt(12) = 2.2reported p < .05 · recomputed p = .048
“t(12) = 2.20, p < .05”
- Consistentt(12) = 4.12reported p < .01 · recomputed p = .001
“t(12) = 4.12, p < .01”
- Consistentt(12) = 3.65reported p < .01 · recomputed p = .003
“t(12) = 3.65, p < .01”
- ConsistentF(2, 24) = 10.13reported p = .01 · recomputed p < .001
“F(2, 24) = 10.13, p = .01”
The paper prints p at a floor (such as p < .001)

Percentages, sums and reported differences re-computed from the paper’s own numbers.
Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.
Baseline is not the highest mental-state accuracy condition
MinorThe text says mental-state accuracy was highest at baseline, but Table 1 reports 74.70% at baseline and a higher 74.98% after the general stress induction.
“with highest accuracy at baseline and lowest post-ASI.”
“| MS CR | 74.70 (6.05) | 74.98 (8.60) | 67.03 (10.00) | 3.59 | 0.04 | |”

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.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
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.
