More infoNEUROSCIENCE Interoception and Decision-Making ABSTRACT Studies on the roles of emotion in decision-making have highlighted a powerful role for emotions in influencing choices. The source of the individual differences in emotional responses, and...
More infoNEUROSCIENCE Reference-dependence in intertemporal choice ABSTRACT In our current study, we measure emotional arousal while individuals make decisions between smaller, immediate monetary rewards and later, larger rewards. We find that both...

More infoNEUROSCIENCE Neural bases of self-control and adaptive behavior ABSTRACT Influential research suggests that exercising self-control depletes a limited cognitive resource, of unclear identity. But a slack in performance needs not invoke resource...
More infoNEUROSCIENCE Thinking Like A Trader ABSTRACT We know surprisingly little about the role of emotions in decision-making, and nearly nothing about how we can change those emotions, and thereby our choices. In a series of studies, we asked...
