摘　　要：催产素是一种亲社会激素,对人类的共情反应有重要的影响作用,主要表现为可以促进情绪识别率,增强对他人不幸的共情关注,并弱化自身的个体忧伤水平等。从作用机制上来看,催产素可能是通过促进具身模仿能力,弱化自我中心主义倾向及调节情感表征过程来影响人类的共情反应的。未来研究可以进一步关注催产素对不同类型共情反应的影响及其催产素影响共情反应的性别差异问题,并积极将催产素应用于共情缺陷的临床干预中。Oxytocin is a prosocial hormone that also has an important influence on human beings＇ empathic responses. It can promote emotion recognition, enhance the empathic concern regarding others＇ unfortunate experiences, and weaken the level of personal distress. With reference to the mechanisms, oxytocin may influence an individual＇s empathic response by promoting his/her embodied-simulation ability, weakening the tendency of self-centeredness, and regulating the emotional representation mechanism. Future studies could focus on the effects of oxytocin on the different types of empathic responses, the effects of oxytocin on gender differences in empathic responses, and actively using oxytocin in clinical interventions for empathy deficits.
