Primary Outcome Measures

<p>Task-FMRI: change in activation of emotion (regulation) brain regions during<br /><br>the perception of infant stimuli compared to control sounds and during the<br /><br>empathy task (infer mental state) compared to the control task (gender<br /><br>discrimination), caregiving behaviors, heart rate, skin conductance and hand<br /><br>grip strength. </p><br>
