Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Oxytocin is known as the "trust hormone" and is associated with social bonding, empathy, and trust. Increasing the secretion of oxytocin in humans could potentially make them more trusting and therefore easier for Dr.Z to manipulate and control. Peptides are a broad category of compounds and norepinephrine and testosterone are not known to directly affect trust.
