The effects of tactile information sharing on empathy and reward systems in interpersonal interaction are significant. Recent technological developments have enabled tactile information sharing in remote communication, but its effects on brain plasticity have not been investigated. To this aim, using functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI), we investigated whether conveying tactile information during remote communication induces plastic changes in functional connectivity. Seventy participants participated in conversations either with or without tactile stimulation. During the social interaction phase, participants engaged in a 15-minute conversation with the experimenter. Afterward, the tactile group showed a higher emotional connection score than the control group. Notable plastic changes in functional connectivity were observed in the striatum-orbitofrontal cortex and striatum-inferior frontal gyrus of the tactile group compared to the control group. In addition, a significant correlation between emotional connection and the connectivity between the anterior cingulate cortex and supramarginal gyrus was identified. These findings suggest that remote tactile communication systems have the potential to amplify emotional experiences and foster enhanced interpersonal connections in virtual interactions.
