Aging, Probability Weighting, and Reference Point Adoption: An Experimental Study [PDF]
We examine generational differences in risk-taking behavior by means of a laboratory experiment with monetary incentives. We estimate the parameterized models in the framework of cumulative prospect theory and examine the risk aversion, probability ...

Association Between Motor Pathway Damage and Motor Deficit in Upper and Lower Limb in People With MS
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Corticospinal tract damage is common in people with MS, but the degree of clinical symptoms varies. We hypothesize that corticospinal tract lesions are more extensive and severe in people with MS with motor impairments in both upper and lower limbs.
