Brain networks proposed to underlie separate processes that characterize the social brain, including affective, simulation, empathy, and mentalizing processes (a), and overlap of social networks with nodes of the default mode network (DMN) during active social cognition, contemplation of social interaction, and theory-of-mind processing (b). In (b), colors represent activation in the labeled networks. ICA = independent component analysis.
