Neuroeconomics of cooperation heuristics University of Antwerp
The neuroeconomics of cooperation University of Antwerp
Through cooperation we are able to thrive, build societies, culture and technology. But history also reveals our potential for selfishness, spite and prejudice. Studying the neural processes that drive choice behaviour is essential to understand this paradox and develop means to curb greed and extend the limits of cooperation.
Neuroeconomics of prosocial behavior University of Antwerp
When do people cooperate? The neuroeconomics of prosocial decision making University of Antwerp
Understanding the roots of prosocial behavior is an interdisciplinary research endeavor that has generated an abundance of empirical data across many disciplines. This review integrates research findings from different fields into a novel theoretical framework that can account for when prosocial behavior is likely to occur. Specifically, we propose that the motivation to cooperate (or not), generated by the reward system in the brain (extending ...

Factors associated with treatment escalation among MS specialists and general neurologists: Results from an International cojoint study Hasselt University
Background: Previous studies in multiple sclerosis (MS) showed that therapeutic inertia (TI) affects 60-90% of neurologists and up to 25% of daily treatment decisions. The objective of this study was to determine the most common factors and attribute levels associated with decisions to treatment escalation in an international study in MS care. Methods: 300 neurologists with MS expertise from 20 countries were invited to participate. Participants ...
Effect of desire for pregnancy on decisions to escalate treatment in multiple sclerosis care: Differences between MS specialists and non-MS specialists Hasselt University
Background: Therapeutic inertia (TI) is a worldwide phenomenon that affects 60 to 90% of neurologists and up to 25% of daily treatment decisions during management of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. A large volume of MS patients are women of childbearing age, and desire for pregnancy is a complex variable often affecting MS care. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of desire for pregnancy on decisions to escalate treatment ...
Time ambiguity during intertemporal decision-making is aversive, impacting choice and neural value coding Ghent University
The subjective evaluation of task switch cues is related to voluntary task switching Ghent University
Task switching refers to the effortful mental process of shifting attention between different tasks. While it is well established that task switching usually comes with an objective performance cost, recent studies have shown that people also subjectively evaluate task switching as negative. An open question is whether this affective evaluation of task switching is also related to actual decision making. In this pre-registered study, we ...
