Frames, biases, and rational decision-making in the human brainBenedetto De Martino
Wellcome Department of Imaging Neuroscience, Institute of Neurology, University College London, 12 Queen Square, London WC1 3AR, UK
Science 313:684-7. 2006..This finding highlights the importance of incorporating emotional processes within models of human choice and suggests how the brain may modulate the effect of these biasing influences to approximate rationality...
Enhanced processing of threat stimuli under limited attentional resourcesBenedetto De Martino
Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging UCL, WC1N3BG London, UK
Cereb Cortex 19:127-33. 2009..We suggest that these data support a model in which a prefrontal "gate" mechanism controls conscious access of emotional information under conditions of limited attentional resources...
Explaining enhanced logical consistency during decision making in autismBenedetto De Martino
Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging, University College London, London WC1N 3BG, United Kingdom
J Neurosci 28:10746-50. 2008..These data highlight both benefits and costs arising from multiple decision processes in human cognition...
Noradrenergic neuromodulation of human attention for emotional and neutral stimuliBenedetto De Martino
Functional Imaging Laboratory, Institute of Neurology, Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging, 12 Queen Square, London, WC1N 3BG, UK
Psychopharmacology (Berl) 197:127-36. 2008..Norepinephrine (NE) has a regulatory role in human attention...
Confidence in value-based choiceBenedetto De Martino
Psychology and Language Sciences, University College London, London, UK
Nat Neurosci 16:105-10. 2013..Our findings provide a mechanistic link between noise in value comparison and metacognitive awareness of choice, enabling us both to want and to express knowledge of what we want...
The NMDA agonist D-cycloserine facilitates fear memory consolidation in humansRaffael Kalisch
Functional Imaging Laboratory, Wellcome Department of Imaging Neuroscience, University College London, London, UK
Cereb Cortex 19:187-96. 2009..DCS also enhanced CS-evoked neural responses in a posterior hippocampus/collateral sulcus region and in the medial prefrontal cortex at test. Our data suggest a role for NMDA receptors in regulating fear memory consolidation in humans...
A genetically mediated bias in decision making driven by failure of amygdala controlJonathan P Roiser
Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience, University College London, London WC1N 3AR, UK
J Neurosci 29:5985-91. 2009..These data suggest that genetically mediated differences in prefrontal-amygdala interactions underpin interindividual differences in economic decision making...
How choice reveals and shapes expected hedonic outcomeTali Sharot
Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging, Institute of Neurology, University College London, WCN 3BG London, UK
J Neurosci 29:3760-5. 2009..Furthermore, before any revaluation induced by the decision process, our data show that BOLD signal in this same region reflects the choices we are likely to make at a later time...
Blocking central opiate function modulates hedonic impact and anterior cingulate response to rewards and lossesPredrag Petrovic
Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging, University College London, London WC1N 3BG, United Kingdom
J Neurosci 28:10509-16. 2008..Our data indicate that a central opioid system contributes to both reward and loss processing in humans and directly modulates the hedonic experience of outcomes...
