It motivates the search
for proximity between the child and their parents and promotes social bonding
and care behavior. The main characteristics of the caregiver are the

can imitate adult gestures and facial recognition of baby's emotions activates
areas of empathy (insula) and reward (orbitofrontal cortex) on mother and child.

social skills to interact with others, using the social cognition mechanisms:
empathy, reward learning, imitation, tracking intentions, mentalizing, theory

mechanisms may produce intense effects on social performance and would be one
of the factors of important disability on mental illness. Read more>>>>>>>>
