"Empathy toward the distress of others is thought to motivate helping behaviour, in the form of voluntary action to eliminate that distress. Neuropeptide oxytocin is associated with various social cognitive abilities, including empathy and prosocial behaviour. The anterior cingulate cortex is known to be one of the brain regions underlying empathy, and one in which oxytocin receptors are expressed."

"To examine the relationship between Perfectionism and self-esteem in a sample of athletes, 56 students (33 males, 23 females) from the University of Tehran were included in this study. All participants were asked to complete Farsi version of the Positive and Negativ Perfectionism Scale (FPANPS) and Coopersmith Self-esteem Inventory (SEI). The results showed that positive Perfectionism was positively associated with self-esteem and negative Perfectionism was negatively associated with self-esteem. Positive Perfectionism is supposed to increase level of self-esteem through enhancement of “self-competence” and “selfacceptance”.aonversely negative Perfectionism is supposed to decrease level of self-esteem through reducing “self-competence” and “self-accepatnce”, as well as developing or intensify psychological disorders such as depression, anxiety, and personality or interpersonal problems."

10. fearless * fearful (serotonin sensitivity ... neuroticism)
<> they are equally strong/active

"Together, these results suggest that emotional information modulates neural processing within ventral sensory processing streams, but not dorsal processing streams. These findings are discussed with respect to current models of emotional and sensory processing, including amygdala connections to sensory cortices and emotional effects on cognition and behaviour."

"A large body of brain imaging research highlights a set of specific regions in the limbic, insular and prefrontal cortex as sensitive to static visual images of high emotional content. Here we report that when using more naturalistic stimuli (short audio–visual video clips) the most selective cortical loci demonstrating preferential activation to emotional content were centered on the dorsal, action related, stream of visual areas. Subjects underwent fMRI scanning while watching a set of highly emotional as well as neutral video clips. Following the scan, clips were rated by each subject for emotional arousal and valence. Surprisingly, activity in dorsal stream visual areas (such as IPS and SPL) showed the highest preference to emotional arousal compared to all other brain areas. In contrast, ventral stream visual areas showed a significantly weaker emotional preference. Control experiments ruled out low level visual or auditory cues as contributing factors to this effect. Furthermore, the specific spatial pattern of emotion-related activations was incompatible with general arousal or attentional effects. Given the established role of dorsal stream visual areas in action-related functions, these results support the long held hypothesis associating emotion with preparation for action."
