Medicine & TechnologyResearchers found that young adults playing video games at least 11 hours per week tend to have improved executive functioning. Read the article to learn more about it.
Researchers reveal that a person who writes on paper when making a decision will likely have a virtuous decision than when they do it on a digital device. To know more about the study, check out this post.
In new research, study authors revealed that people who frequently play video games are better at decision-making than the non-gamers. Read to know more.
A new study on brain activities reveals that this particular area is responsible for evaluating decisions we make. Learn more about 'performance monitoring' and the functions of the medial frontal cortex.
DARPA is working on a new initiative to make fast decisions without bias on the battlefield using artificial intelligence (AI). Find out how this can affect the military.
Researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai found that neurons that exclusively monitor the body's internal dynamics could affect the brain’s decision-making centers.
For years, MIT scientists have been studying how brain circuits play a role in decision-making. New research explains how motivation declines with age.
According to a new study from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, a small part of the cerebellum plays an integral role in making split-second "go or no go" decisions.
A collaborative report identifies indicators that can help farmers in the agriculture sector under five major categories, such as temperature patterns and the welfare of livestock. Teaching farmers and land managers the effects of climate change can help with major decision-making.
Researchers have found a way to control decision-making abilities in monkeys. In their study, the authors used ultrasound therapy pointed at the monkey's frontal cortex. Scientists believe that this approach could be used to treat addiction and depression in the future.
Scientists have found that neurological evidence in the form of brain scans that show birds of a feather do flock together. The team says that neural and social signals in the mind align in terms of how we perceive both safety and risk. This means that trends happen for a reason, and now scientists have a better understanding of why-no matter how awful, embarrassing, or just plain weird the trend is.
In an attempt to understand the social dynamics among our hunter-gatherer ancestors, anthropologists sometimes begin in the present and work backwards. And what the researchers at University College London have found adds another dimension to the unique social structure of hunter-gatherer society.
