Bending arms, bending discounting functions. How motor actions affect intertemporal decision-making. [PDF]
In five studies we demonstrate that task-irrelevant somatic activity influences intertemporal decision making: Arm movements associated with approach (arm flexion), rather than avoidance (arm extension), instigate present-biased preferences. We show that

The Neural Basis of Approach-Avoidance Conflict: A Model Based Analysis
eNeuro, 2019 Approach-avoidance conflict arises when the drives to pursue reward and avoid harm are incompatible. Previous neuroimaging studies of approach-avoidance conflict have shown large variability in reported neuroanatomical correlates.

The Effects of Tears on Approach–Avoidance Tendencies in Observers
Evolutionary Psychology, 2018 Emotional tears have been proposed to represent a robust affiliative signal whose main function is to promote the willingness to help the crying individual. However, little is known about the psychological mechanisms at the basis of such responses.

Self-Approach Tendencies: Relations With Explicit and Implicit Self-Evaluations
Frontiers in Psychology, 2019 We used a newly developed Self-Approach-Avoidance Task (Self-AAT) to measure self-approach tendencies in female students. In this task, participants use a joystick to pull portraits of themselves and of others closer or to push them away.

Consequence-Based Approach-Avoidance Training: A New and Improved Method for Changing Behavior
Psychology Science, 2018 The repeated performance of approach or avoidance actions in response to specific stimuli (e.g., alcoholic drinks) is often considered a most promising type of cognitive-bias modification that can reduce unwanted behavior (e.g., alcohol consumption ...

Cerebral Cortex, 2019 Affective disorders are associated with increased sensitivity to negative feedback that influences approach–avoidance decision making. Although neuroimaging studies of these disorders reveal dysregulation in primate cingulate areas 25 and 32 and the ...

Measuring approach–avoidance tendencies towards food with touchscreen-based arm movements
Psychological Research, 2019 Most tasks for measuring automatic approach–avoidance tendencies do not resemble naturalistic approach–avoidance behaviors. Therefore, we developed a paradigm for the assessment of approach–avoidance tendencies towards palatable food, which is based on ...

Decentralized MPC based Obstacle Avoidance for Multi-Robot Target Tracking Scenarios
, 2018 In this work, we consider the problem of decentralized multi-robot target tracking and obstacle avoidance in dynamic environments. Each robot executes a local motion planning algorithm which is based on model predictive control (MPC).
