Pain empathy—the neural response. A, TFR (bottom panel) of the pain empathy contrast pain versus no-pain (see top left image for stimulus example). B, Topographic MEG sensor representation of the same pain empathy contrasts each dataset (compare SI). C, Raincloud histograms of pain empathy (extracted from TFR representation) per each political group D, Parametric representation of pain empathy as a function of political ideology self-reports (left panel) and right-wing authoritarianism ratings (right panel).

A, TFR of statistical contrast between the two conditions on 77 subjects. B, Topographic representation of the most suppressed sensor. C, Raincloud histogram, indicating alpha power change ratio in each political group, calculated on the peak sensor and averaged over the significant TF window. D, Sagittal view of alpha suppression peak source in the brain, detected by beamforming technique. E, Alpha power temporal changes on peak source in both conditions. F, Raincloud histogram, indicating VC power ratio in each political group, averaged over the significant TF window.

TFR of statistical contrast between the two conditions on 47 subjects. B, Topographic representation of the most suppressed sensor. C, Raincloud histogram, indicating alpha power change ratio in each political group, calculated on the peak sensor and averaged over the significant TF window. D, Sagittal view of alpha suppression peak source in the brain, detected by beamforming technique. E, Alpha power temporal changes on peak source in both conditions. F, Raincloud histogram, indicating VC power ratio in each political group, averaged over the significant TF window.

Pain empathy—the behavioral and self-reported measures. This indicates the contrast of behavioral (VPQ) and self-reports (IRI) measures of empathy in the two opposing political groups, all provided nonsignificant contrast V: p = 0.15, mean = 2.33, SEM = 0.21; V: p = 0.10, mean = 4.66, SEM = 0.19; IRI(EC): p = 0.08, mean = 5.8, SEM = 0.08 and IRI(PT): p = 0.13, mean = 5.6, SEM = 0.08.
