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.

The Interplay of Hippocampus and Ventromedial Prefrontal Cortex in Memory-Based Decision Making.

TL;DR: The mechanisms of potential interactions between the hippocampus and ventromedial prefrontal cortex that have been proposed and tested in recent neuroimaging studies are focused on and several directions for future research on the neural and cognitive foundations of memory-based decision making are discussed.

Neural reactivation links unconscious thought to decision-making performance

TL;DR: Initial evidence is provided for post-encoding unconscious neural reactivation in facilitating decision making using blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Four core properties of the human brain valuation system demonstrated in intracranial signals

TL;DR: The neural representation of value ratings in 36 people with epilepsy is investigated, using intracranial electroencephalography, and it is found that subjective value was positively reflected in both vmPFC and lOFC high-frequency activity, plus several other brain regions, including the hippocampus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neural mechanisms for learning self and other ownership

TL;DR: It is shown that specific brain areas are involved in ownership acquisition for the self, friends, and strangers, with a self-ownership bias at multiple levels of behaviour from initial preferences to reaction times and computational learning rates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential Activation Patterns in the Same Brain Region Led to Opposite Emotional States.

TL;DR: It is found that different patterns of neural activations within the cingulate cortex play roles in representing opposite directions of facial preference, and a different activation pattern in the CC represents and suffices to determine positive or negative facial preference.

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.

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.

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.

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.
