Neural mechanisms of economic choices in mice [PDF]
eLife, 2020 Economic choices entail computing and comparing subjective values. Evidence from primates indicates that this behavior relies on the orbitofrontal cortex. Conversely, previous work in rodents provided conflicting results. Here we present a mouse model of

Neuronal evidence for good-based economic decisions under variable action costs [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2019 Choices between goods often depend on the action costs, but the mechanisms underlying economic decisions under variable action cost are poorly understood.

Theory Change in Cognitive Neurobiology: The Case of the Orbitofrontal Cortex. [PDF]
Wiley Interdiscip Rev Cogn SciABSTRACT How do theories of the functions of parts of the brain change? I argue that computational hypotheses help explain the nature of theorizing in cognitive neurobiology. I will focus on the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), a frontal region of the brain implicated in an array of cognitive functions.

The orbitofrontal cortex represents advantageous choice in the Iowa gambling task. [PDF]
Hum Brain Mapp, 2022 The orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) represents advantageous choice, and choice‐related activations in the OFC are not correlated with value signals. Abstract A good‐based model, the central neurobiological model of economic decision‐making, proposes that the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) represents binary choice outcome, that is, the chosen good.

Psychological Value Theory: Predicting Initial Romantic Partner Choice From a General-Purpose, Computational Cognitive Model of Value-Based Choice. [PDF]
Cogn SciAbstract Mate value is theorized to be a key driver of romantic partner choice, yet the cognitive mechanism underlying romantic partner choice remains poorly understood. Here, we assess whether initial romantic partner choice can be predicted by a general‐purpose, computational cognitive model of value and choice.

Neural correlates of choosing alcohol over a palatable food reward in humans. [PDF]
Alcohol Clin Exp Res (Hoboken)The study examined brain correlates to alcohol versus snack choices in light and heavy drinkers. Participants completed a task where they earned points for alcohol or snack rewards, with point values manipulated to be equal or to favor one. Both groups showed sensitivity to the relative cost of alcohol, replicating prior findings.

Thirty years of invasion: the distribution of the invasive crayfish Procambarus clarkii in Italy [PDF]
, 2020 The presence of the red swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii in Italy is documented since 1989, but no comprehensive data are available on its spread through time at the national scale. New confirmed records for Procambarus clarkii are continuously arising

Human Brain Mapping, Volume 44, Issue 17, Page 5693-5711, 1 December, 2023., 2023 Amount and probability attributes were represented in the superior parietal lobule with similar neural activation pattern. Further, this region also involves to the valuation of the probabilistic rewards. Abstract Several studies have examined the neural substrates of probabilistic decision‐making, but few have systematically investigated the neural ...

Trustee strategies, politicization and de‐delegation: The case of the European Central Bank
Governance, Volume 36, Issue 1, Page 125-140, January 2023., 2023 Abstract This article shows how the European Central Bank (ECB) reduced the risk of politicization and de facto de‐delegation despite experiencing contestation. During the euro area crisis and the coronavirus emergency the ECB's monetary policy measures have been widely praised for their effectiveness. Even though the ECB is an independent trustee that

Bid outcome processing in Vickrey auctions: An ERP study
Psychophysiology, Volume 59, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Online retailers often sell products using a socially competitive second‐price sealed‐bid auction known as a Vickrey auction (VA), an incentivized demand‐revealing mechanism used to elicit players' subjective values. The VA presents a situation of risky decision‐making, which typically implements value processing and a loss aversion mechanism.
