TLDR
It is verified that brain regions encoding preferences can valuate various categories of objects and further test whether they still express preferences when attention is diverted to another task.

Effective Connectivity between Hippocampus and Ventromedial Prefrontal Cortex Controls Preferential Choices from Memory.

TL;DR: Using a Bayesian modeling approach, the posterior probability that options were remembered given the observed choices was determined and the bias toward remembered options was linked to increased connectivity between hippocampus and ventromedial prefrontal cortex.

Neural correlates of viewing paintings: Evidence from a quantitative meta-analysis of functional magnetic resonance imaging data

TL;DR: The results suggest that viewing paintings engages not only systems involved in visual representation and object recognition, but also structures underlying emotions and internalized cognitions.
Journal ArticleDOI

The neural basis of social influence and attitude change

TL;DR: Future progress in this field will depend upon the ability of researchers to dissociate underlying motivations for attitude change in different paradigms, and to utilize neuroimaging methods to advance social psychological theories of social influence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human medial orbitofrontal cortex is recruited during experience of imagined and real rewards.

TL;DR: It is found that medial orbitofrontal cortex (mOFC) is engaged both for real and imagined rewards and is preferentially engaged for imagery with rewarding content compared with other nonrewarding imagery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Signatures of Value Comparison in Ventral Striatum Neurons.

TL;DR: The close match between vmPFC and VS suggests that cortex and its striatal targets make overlapping contributions to economic choice.

Theory of Games and Economic Behavior

TL;DR: Theory of games and economic behavior as mentioned in this paper is the classic work upon which modern-day game theory is based, and it has been widely used to analyze a host of real-world phenomena from arms races to optimal policy choices of presidential candidates, from vaccination policy to major league baseball salary negotiations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parallel Organization of Functionally Segregated Circuits Linking Basal Ganglia and Cortex

TL;DR: The basal ganglia serve primarily to integrate diverse inputs from the entire cerebral cortex and to "funnel" these influences, via the ventrolateral thalamus, to the motor cortex.
Journal ArticleDOI

A perspective on judgment and choice: Mapping bounded rationality.

TL;DR: Determinants and consequences of accessibility help explain the central results of prospect theory, framing effects, the heuristic process of attribute substitution, and the characteristic biases that result from the substitution of nonextensional for extensional attributes.

The Neural Basis of Decision Making

TL;DR: This work focuses on simple decisions that can be studied in the laboratory but emphasize general principles likely to extend to other settings, including deliberation and commitment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Separate Neural Systems Value Immediate and Delayed Monetary Rewards

TL;DR: The authors examined the neural correlates of time discounting while subjects made a series of choices between monetary reward options that varied by delay to delivery and demonstrated that two separate systems are involved in such decisions.
