Abstract

De Dreu et al. (1) presented a set of experiments exploring the effects of the neuropeptide oxytocin on implicit associations and moral reasoning about in-group and out-group members. Although their experiments were cleverly designed, their data did not clearly support their interpretation that oxytocin promotes human "ethnocentrism". (1: De Dreu CKW, et al (2011) Oxytocin promotes human ethnocentrism. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 108:1262-1266.).
