Journal ArticleDOI
Deciding Advantageously Before Knowing the Advantageous Strategy
TL;DR: The results suggest that, in normal individuals, nonconscious biases guide behavior before conscious knowledge does, and without the help of such biases, overt knowledge may be insufficient to ensure advantageous behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impaired recognition of emotion in facial expressions following bilateral damage to the human amygdala.
Ralph Adolphs,Daniel Tranel,Hanna Damasio,Hanna Damasio,Antonio R. Damasio,Antonio R. Damasio +5 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest the human amygdala may be indispensable to recognize fear in facial expressions, but is not required to recognize personal identity from faces, and constrains the broad notion that the amygdala is involved in emotion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of the decision-making deficit of patients with ventromedial prefrontal cortex lesions.
TL;DR: Patients with VM lesions are insensitive to future consequences, positive or negative, and are primarily guided by immediate prospects, according to this study's designs of a variant of the original gambling task.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impairment of social and moral behavior related to early damage in human prefrontal cortex.
TL;DR: Early-onset prefrontal damage resulted in a syndrome resembling psychopathy, suggesting that the acquisition of complex social conventions and moral rules had been impaired.
Journal ArticleDOI
A neural basis for lexical retrieval
Hanna Damasio,Thomas J. Grabowski,Daniel Tranel,Richard D. Hichwa,Antonio R. Damasio,Antonio R. Damasio +5 more
TL;DR: Two parallel studies using positron emission tomography indicate that the normal process of retrieving words that denote concrete entities depends in part on multiple regions of the left cerebral hemisphere, located outside the classic language areas.
