TI  - Self-face recognition in social context.

AB  - The concept of "social self" is often described as a representation of the 
      self-reflected in the eyes or minds of others. Although the appearance of one's 
      own face has substantial social significance for humans, neuroimaging studies 
      have failed to link self-face recognition and the likely neural substrate of the 
      social self, the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC). We assumed that the social self 
      is recruited during self-face recognition under a rich social context where 
      multiple other faces are available for comparison of social values. Using 
      functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), we examined the modulation of 
      neural responses to the faces of the self and of a close friend in a social 
      context. We identified an enhanced response in the ventral MPFC and right 
      occipitoparietal sulcus in the social context specifically for the self-face. 
      Neural response in the right lateral parietal and inferior temporal cortices, 
      previously claimed as self-face-specific, was unaffected for the self-face but 
      unexpectedly enhanced for the friend's face in the social context. 
      Self-face-specific activation in the pars triangularis of the inferior frontal 
      gyrus, and self-face-specific reduction of activation in the left middle temporal 
      gyrus and the right supramarginal gyrus, replicating a previous finding, were not 
      subject to such modulation. Our results thus demonstrated the recruitment of a 
      social self during self-face recognition in the social context. At least three 
      brain networks for self-face-specific activation may be dissociated by different 
      patterns of response-modulation in the social context, suggesting multiple 
      dynamic self-other representations in the human brain.
