UNIT ONE 1. Science Proves That Love Is Blind
Scientists have shown that there is a degree of truth in the old adage 1 that love is blind. They have found that feelings of love lead to a suppression of activity in the areas of the brain controlling critical thought.
It seems that once we get close to a person, the brain decides the need to assess their character and personality is reduced.
The study, by University College London, is published in NeuroImage.
The researchers found that both romantic love and maternal 2 love produce the same effect on the brain. They suppress neural 3 activity associated with critical social assessment 4 of other people and negative emotions.
The UCL team scanned the brains of 20 young mothers while they viewed pictures of their own children, children they were acquainted with, and adult friends.
The team found that the patterns of brain activity were very similar to those identified in an earlier study looking at the effects of romantic love.
Both studies recorded increased activity in parts of the brain's "reward system".
When these areas are stimulated 5 - as they can be by food and drink, or even monetary 6 gain - they produce feelings of euphoria.
But perhaps more surprisingly, both studies also showed reduced levels of activity in the systems necessary for making negative judgements.
Lead researcher Dr Andreas Bartels said it was crucial that both romantic and maternal love were viewed by the brain in a highly positive way - because both were crucial to the perpetuation 7 of the species.
