His doctoral research focused on the effects of oxytocin on several variables such as trust, (pro- or anti-)social behaviours (especially compassion and jealousy), emotional recognition and social sharing of the emotions.

The aim of this meta-analytic work is to allow us a better comprehension of this hormone influences.
