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.

How motivational signals disrupt metacognitive signals in the human VMPFC.

TL;DR: The results show that strong VMPFC confidence signals observed in Trials with gain prospects are disrupted in trials with no – or negative (loss) monetary prospects, andiphering how decision variables are represented and interact at finer scales seems necessary to better understand biased (meta)cognition.

Assessing consumer demand with noisy neural measurements

TL;DR: It is proposed that additional neural variables from areas of the brain that are unrelated to valuation can serve as “proxies” for the measurement error in value regions, substantially alleviating the bias in model estimates.

Functional Organization of Auditory and Reward Systems in Aging

TL;DR: The intrinsic organization of functional brain networks is known to change with age, and is affected by perceptual input and task conditions as discussed by the authors , and the role of aging and reward sensitivity on auditory and reward networks.

fMRI correlates of risky decision-making in adolescent alcohol users : : the role of abstinence

TL;DR: Findings highlight differential neural functioning during risky decision-making in heavy drinking adolescents and non-users and suggest alterations in neural functioning commonly observed in adolescent alcohol users may result from a combination of acute changes related to use as well as pre-existing vulnerabilities.

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.
