Emotion and the Advocacy Coalition Framework: An Affective Dynamics Perspective

Policy Studies Journal, Volume 54, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite extensive evidence that emotion and cognition are deeply intertwined, the Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF) lacks an analytically independent emotional mechanism in its causal architecture—an omission that may be particularly consequential in policy subsystems structured around morally charged, identity‐laden policy disputes.

Value‐based decision‐making and behavioral economic constructs that distinguish people with and without cannabis use history

Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, Volume 126, Issue 1, July 2026.
Abstract Behavioral economic accounts posit that distorted valuation processes underlie cannabis decisions; however, less is known about the moment‐to‐moment dynamics through which value influences observable choice behavior. This study explored whether value‐based decision‐making and behavioral economic constructs distinguish people with and without ...

A NEUROECONOMIC APPROACH OF TAX BEHAVIOR [PDF]

Annals of the University of Oradea: Economic Science, 2012
Governments around the world register substantial losses due to tax non-compliance behavior. Whether it is tax avoidance or tax evasion, non-compliance has repercussions on the whole society because it mitigates the quality of the provision of public ...

Wired for Corruption: Inter‐Brain Synchrony Encodes Bribery‐Related Value Information and Predicts Bribery Agreement

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1561, Issue 1, July 2026.
The present study examined the computational and neural mechanisms of bribery decision‐making by integrating a novel dyadic behavioral paradigm, computational modeling, and fNIRS hyperscanning. Both bribers and power‐holders exhibited similar moral‐profit tradeoffs during bribery decision‐making. Interneural synchrony in the bilateral prefrontal cortex

Neural computations underlying strategic social decision-making in groups

Nature Communications, 2019
The brain mechanisms underlying cooperation within groups, while balancing individual and collective interests, are poorly understood. Here, the authors identify the neurocomputations engaged in social dilemmas requiring strategic decisions during ...

Collective Neuroplasticity in the Human Division of Labor: Theory, Evidence, and Implications

Sociology Compass, Volume 20, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The division of labor in human societies have been mainly analyzed by Adam Smith and Émile Durkheim, both from two different perspectives. However, due to the limitations of the state of knowledge and technology in their respective eras, their approach reached the end of its productivity.

Trust Emerges From Shared Attention: Behavioural and Neural Evidence From Dual EEG Hyperscanning

Human Brain Mapping, Volume 47, Issue 4, March 2026.
Shared attention enhances trust behaviour even in the absence of communication, visual cues, or reciprocity. Dual EEG hyperscanning revealed that trust under shared attention is supported by prefrontal oscillatory power, intra‐brain connectivity, and inter‐brain synchronisation.

Nocturnal Risk Assessment and Its Association With Anxiety Symptoms

Psychophysiology, Volume 63, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Human risk assessment (RA), the attentional and behavioral activities involved in detecting and analyzing threat, is feasibly enhanced at night to protect against hidden danger. However, this enhanced RA at night might come at a cost and thus signal increased risk for anxiety disorders. To test the hypothesis that the nighttime enhances RA and

Voters’ Facial Expression Analysis as a Complement to Traditional Election Polls: Affective Voting in Spanish National Elections in 2023

Social Science Quarterly, Volume 107, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives This research jointly combines voters. biometric facial expression analysis while viewing images of candidates and party logos with traditional surveys to define and quantify novel indicators of affective voting. The paper explains the innovative methodology and analyzes the results of the experiment carried out before the 2023 ...

Models in Decision‐Making Under Risk and Uncertainty

Journal of Economic Surveys, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 304-320, February 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper systematically compares dominant frameworks for modeling decision‐making under risk and uncertainty, evaluating their theoretical trade‐offs and practical relevance for economic research. We establish key criteria for model selection—including predictive accuracy, descriptive realism, computational tractability, and ecological ...
