We describe (SBT), a perspective that integrates the study of social relationships with principles of attachment, behavioral ecology, cognitive neuroscience, and perception science. SBT suggests the human brain expects access to social relationships that mitigate risk and diminish the level of effort needed to meet a variety of goals. This is accomplished in part by incorporating relational partners into neural representations of the self. By contrast, decreased access to relational partners increases cognitive and physiological effort. Relationship disruptions entail re-defining the self as independent, which implies greater risk, increased effort, and diminished well being. The ungrafting of the self and other may mediate recovery from relationship loss.
我们描述了社会脑理论（SBT），这是一种将社会关系研究与依恋、行为生态学、认知神经科学和感知科学原理相结合的观点。社会脑理论表明，人类大脑期望获得能够降低风险并减少实现各种目标所需努力程度的社会关系。这部分是通过将关系伙伴纳入自我的神经表征来实现的。相比之下，与关系伙伴接触的减少会增加认知和生理上的努力。关系破裂需要将自我重新定义为独立的，这意味着更大的风险、更多的努力和幸福感的降低。自我与他人的分离可能介导从关系丧失中恢复过来。
