Is there any evidence for this effect in brain regions related to empathy? (mirror neurons?)
Does focusing one's attention on emotional states of others (and, more importantly, one's own feelings experienced while watching others) increase one's "empathic sensitivity"? Or when parents focus child's attention on emotions of others during upbringing, does that make the child more sensitive to others?
I'm not aware of any research in this area. It appears plausible, but there could be many confounding factors.
