This overview is a synthesis of our current understanding of parent-infant bonding, chiefly from the perspective of the parent's brain physiology. The parent-infant bond is central to the human condition, contributes to risks for mood and anxiety disorders, and provides potential resiliency and protection against the development of psychopathology throughout life. While the complex nature of the phenomena and experimental approaches leads to the consideration of many overlapping parenting brain systems, including sensory, emotion, and cognition to support behavior, a relatively small set of brain regions seem to be robustly involved. These include basal ganglia and related cortex for emotion and drive (striatum, amygdala, hypothalamus, and hippocampus), and regulatory cortical regions (anterior cingulate, insula medial frontal, and orbitofrontal cortices). Work in this field promises to link parental brain performance with resilience, risk, and appropriate treatment toward infant mental health.
本综述综合了我们目前对亲子依恋的理解，主要从父母大脑生理学的角度出发。亲子依恋是人类生存状况的核心，它会增加患情绪和焦虑障碍的风险，并为一生抵御精神病理学发展提供潜在的恢复力和保护。虽然这些现象和实验方法的复杂性导致人们考虑许多相互重叠的养育大脑系统，包括支持行为的感觉、情感和认知系统，但似乎有相对较少的一组脑区会稳固地参与其中。这些脑区包括与情感和驱力相关的基底神经节及相关皮层（纹状体、杏仁核、下丘脑和海马体），以及调节性皮层区域（前扣带回、脑岛、内侧额叶和眶额皮层）。该领域的研究有望将父母的大脑表现与恢复力、风险以及针对婴儿心理健康的适当治疗联系起来。
