The Fundamental Nature of Motives
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022 Decision-making is described as a natural process, one among others, consuming free energy in the least time. The thermodynamic tenet explains why data associated with decisions display the same patterns as any other data: skewed distributions, sigmoidal

On Subjective Probability and Expected Utilities
The Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1972 The Anscombe and Aumann double relation approach for defining subjective probabilities and utilities in terms of a person's preferences is generalized for the case in which the set of states of the world is unrestricted (finite or not). A monotone continuity condition enables us to prove $\sigma$-additivity; the necessity of this condition is also ...

On the Rejectability of the Subjective Expected Utility Theory [PDF]
The B.E. Journal of Theoretical Economics, 2016 AbstractState space, a key element of the Subjective Expected Utility (SEU) theory, is not observable. This implies that, in order to test the SEU theory, it is necessary to assume some state space. Consequently, if the SEU theory is rejected, then it is appropriate to conduct a robustness check; that is, to search for a different state space and a ...

Projective expected utility [PDF]
Proceedings of the 12th Conference on Theoretical Aspects of Rationality and Knowledge, 2009 Motivated by classical decision-theoretic paradoxes (Allais 1953, Ellsberg 1961), we introduce a projective generalization of expected utility along the lines of the quantum-mechanical generalization of probability theory. The resulting decision theory accommodates the paradoxes, while retaining significant simplicity and tractability.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Circulating microRNAs as biomarkers of cachexia and sex‐specific cancer in senior dogs. In 25 client‐owned dogs, four circulating miRNAs (miR‐15a, miR‐15b, miR‐16, miR‐140) were downregulated in cachexia, with miR‐16 the strongest individual biomarker (AUC = 0.899).

Humans as intuitive classifiers
Frontiers in Psychology, 2023 Mainstream decision research rests on two implicit working assumptions, inspired by subjective expected utility theory. The first assumes that the underlying processes can be separated into judgment and decision-making stages without affecting their ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Research is strongest when conducted alongside patients, not just about them. Patient research organizations help integrate patient perspectives into research priorities, study design, and scientific meetings, leading to meaningful patient outcomes and development of relevant therapies.

[18F]Fluorodeprenyl‐D2 PET as a Tool to Monitor Disease Activity in GAD65‐Ab Autoimmune Encephalitis
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate [18F]fluorodeprenyl‐D2 ([18F]F‐DED) positron‐emission tomography (PET) imaging as a biomarker of disease activity in autoimmune encephalitis (AIE) associated with glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD65) antibodies. Methods [18F]F‐DED PET was performed in 25 GAD65‐AIE patients and 8 controls using dynamic (0–60 min) and ...
