Abstract
⺠Considerable research has shown strong relationships between social ties and health. ⺠Neural regions that process basic survival threats facilitate health-relevant physiological stress responses. ⺠Threats to social connection activate neural regions that process survival threats and elicit physiological stress responses. ⺠Neural regions that process safety signals inhibit health-relevant physiological stress responses. ⺠Having social support activates neural regions that process safety signals and inhibit physiological stress responses.
