open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology
Decision-making is a deliberate process that seemingly evolves under our own volition. Yet, research on embodied cognition has demonstrated that higher-order cognitive processes may be influenced, in unexpected ways, by properties of motor and sensory ...

Manipulation of Choice Behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We introduce and study the problem of manipulation of choice behavior. In a class of two-stage models of decision making, with the agent's choices determined by three "psychological variables," we imagine that a subset of these variables can be selected by a "manipulator." To what extent does this confer control of the agent's ...

CHOICE AND BEHAVIORAL PATTERNING [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 1982
Ten pigeons pecked left and right keys in a discrete‐trials experiment in which access to food was contingent upon changeovers to the right key after particular runs of left‐key pecks. In each of three sets of conditions, two run lengths were reinforced according to a concurrent variable‐interval schedule: reinforcement followed runs of either 1 or 2 ...

Contextual modulation of behavioral choice [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Neurobiology, 2011
We review the influence of context on behavioral choice. Context can refer to external (environmental) factors such as the season or presence of predators and it can also refer to the internal or behavioral state of an animal. Usually, animals make decisions in the midst of other ongoing behaviors. We discuss recent findings on the impact of both types

Most research on the impact of affect on attitudes and behavior emphasizes the effect of past and present affective reactions. In this article we focus on anticipated, postbehavioral, affective reactions. The influence of anticipated affective reactions on a number of behaviors was investigated in the context of Ajzen's theory of planned behavior ...

Multiplexed modulation of behavioral choice [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 2014
AbstractStimuli in the environment, as well as internal states, influence behavioral choice. Of course, animals are often exposed to multiple external and internal factors simultaneously, which makes the ultimate determinants of behavior quite complex.
