1. The study examined the neural bases of cognitive conflict during moral judgment using fMRI. It presented participants with personal and impersonal moral dilemmas. 2. For difficult personal dilemmas requiring longer response times, brain regions associated with cognitive control like the anterior cingulate cortex and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex were more active, indicating cognitive conflict. 3. For difficult personal dilemmas where participants made utilitarian judgments, areas in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex associated with cognitive control were more active, suggesting these regions worked against emotional responses to support utilitarian thinking.

This document describes a study that investigated the relationship between dopamine levels, paranormal belief, and the ability to detect meaningful stimuli. 40 healthy men participated, half reported paranormal beliefs and experiences ("believers") while the other half were skeptical ("skeptics"). Participants completed two lateralized decision-making tasks, one with words and one with faces, under placebo or levodopa conditions. The study found that levodopa decreased sensitivity on the tasks for skeptics but not believers, and made decision criteria looser for both groups. This suggests dopamine decreases perceptual sensitivity but reduces conservative response tendencies. The findings do not support the idea that dopamine universally improves signal detection.Games in humans and non-human primates - the prospects for game theoretical a...
1) Game theory combined with neuroscience methods can provide insights into decision making by examining behavior and neural activity during strategic games. 2) Studies in monkeys have found neurons in areas like the lateral intraparietal area and superior colliculus that encode decision values and selection during mixed-strategy games. 3) Neuroimaging studies of games in humans find areas like the anterior insula and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex associated with emotional and cognitive processing during social decisions.

1) A study found that participants who gave more intuitive responses on a Cognitive Reflection Test (CRT), reporting answers that came to mind quickly rather than through reflection, reported stronger beliefs in God.
2) When controlling for demographics and other variables, intuitive cognitive style on the CRT still predicted stronger belief in God. It also predicted greater reported changes in belief in God since childhood.
3) A second study replicated these findings while also controlling for measures of cognitive ability and personality traits, suggesting the link between intuitive thinking and belief in God is independent of these factors.Natural Rationality: Beyond Bounded and Ecological Rationality
Decision-making is usually a secondary topic in psychology, relegated to the last chapters of textbooks. Most of the time these chapters acknowledge the failure of the “homo economicus” model and propose to understand human irrationality as the product of heuristic and biases, which may be rational under certain environmental conditions. Psychology pictures decision-making as a deliberative task, studied by multiple-choice tests using the traditional paper and pen method. Psychological research on decision-making assumes that the subjects’ competence in probabilistic reasoning – as revealed by these tests – is a good description of their decision-making capacities. This conception takes for granted (1) that the process of reasoning about action is identical to the process of decision-making and (2) that psychology documents either human failures to comply with rational-choice standards or how mental mechanisms are ecologically rational. In this talk, I argue that decision neuroscience (“neuroeconomics”) may suggest another approach for the study and the nature of decision-making. Research in this field show that information processing in decision is affective, embodied and prosocial: Evolutionary older neural structures, such as the limbic system or dopaminergic neurons, are highly involved in subjective risk and certainty assessment; somatosensory information is integrated in prefrontal areas and helps evaluating choices; In games where players may adopt fair or unfair attitudes, the first ones tend to be more frequent and the second ones elicit emotionally negative reaction.
Moreover, I suggest (against bounded rationality) that these mechanisms achieve near-optimality in social decision-making and (against ecological rationality) that this optimality is not fitness-enhancing. Consequently, I argue that the study of decision-making should be construed as an investigation into “natural rationality” (the mechanisms by which cognitive agents make decisions) and that decision-making should be a central concern for psychology.
Personality and the brain; Can brain damage change personality?
Brain damage can change personality in several ways:
1) Studies have found links between certain personality disorders like antisocial personality disorder and abnormalities in areas of the brain like the prefrontal cortex and amygdala.
2) Brain imaging research on criminals with antisocial personality disorder has revealed structural and functional damage in regions involved in decision making, emotions, and social behavior.
3) Brain damage may contribute to personality changes by impairing functions like impulse control, empathy, and the ability to learn from punishment or fear. However, the relationship between brain abnormalities and personality is complex with many open questions.

Making Sense of Lecture Capture: A Case Study of Peer and Teacher Influence
This document summarizes findings from a case study on how teacher and peer influence can help students make sense of lecture capture videos. The study examined 14 student pairs viewing two statistics videos and answering questions. It found that teacher actions like highlighting and examples accelerated learning by prompting students to extract important cues. While imitating the teacher did not lead to better performance, studying first and then solving example problems did. Peer questioning and feedback also disrupted ongoing sensemaking in a way that led to deeper understanding through revision. The conclusions indicate that teacher and peer interactions are significant stimuli for guiding students to find meaningful explanations in difficult video content.
Soche 2008 Blogs Wikis
This document discusses the pedagogical uses of blogs and wikis in education. It outlines benefits such as encouraging student-faculty interaction and active learning, as well as challenges like maintaining focus and decorum. Blogs are described as more personal and reflective, organized chronologically, while wikis emphasize collaboration and revision through a web-like structure. Both can be useful tools to build community and promote critical thinking when used appropriately in educational settings.

The document discusses creating and implementing an effective drug-free workplace program. It covers assessing alcohol and drug problems in the workplace, developing policies, educating employees on substance abuse, establishing an Employee Assistance Program, implementing drug testing, and celebrating safely. The goal is to increase productivity and safety while reducing costs, accidents, absenteeism and liability through a successful drug-free workplace initiative.
Moral dilemma
This document discusses several studies on the neural foundations of moral reasoning and antisocial behavior. It aims to investigate instrumental aggression in moral decision-making among schizophrenic criminal offenders using moral dilemmas. The study assumes impairments in brain regions involved in moral cognition and emotion may underlie rule-breaking behavior in antisocial populations. It will examine reaction times and skin conductance responses to dilemmas to test dual-process theories of moral judgment.

A New Model: Advancing Organizational Security Through Peacebuilding
Why is the security industry so full of fail? We spend millions of dollars on firewalls, IPS, IDS, DLP, professional penetration tests and assessments, and vulnerability and compliance tools, and at the end of the day, the weakest link is the user and his or her inability to make the right choices. It's enough to make a security engineer cry.
The one thing you can depend upon in an enterprise is that many of your users, even with training, will still make the wrong choices. They will violate BYOD restrictions, click on links they shouldn't, respond to phishing scams, open documents without thinking, post too much information on Twitter and Facebook, use their pet's name as passwords, etc. But what if this isn't because users hate us or are too stupid? What if all our ignored policies and procedures regarding the best security practices have more to do with our failure to understand modern neuroscience and the human mind's resistance to change?
Humans are wired to be emotional beings. Emotions influence most of our decisions, good and bad. In failing to understand how this is at the root of user non-compliance, no matter how much money we spend on expensive hardware and software, we will fail to achieve the goal of good organizational security.

2020 - Smillie - Personality and moral judgement.pdf
This study examined the relationship between personality traits and moral judgments that are either consequentialist (based on outcomes) or deontological (based on adherence to rules or duties). Specifically, it investigated how the Big Five personality traits of openness/intellect, agreeableness-compassion, and agreeableness-politeness related to these types of moral judgments.
Across two studies with over 800 participants total, intellect/openness uniquely predicted consequentialist moral judgments, supporting the view that deliberative cognitive processes underlie such judgments. Agreeableness-politeness uniquely predicted deontological moral judgments, supporting the view that adherence to social norms, rather than emotions, underlies such judgments. Agreeableness
Neurobiologist's Guide to Mind Manipulation 0.3
This document provides an overview of cognitive restructuring and psychological safety. It discusses how the brain works, including the dual pathway model of the limbic system and cortex. It then covers cognitive behavioral therapy and how to use cognitive restructuring to notice thoughts and emotions without judgment in order to choose helpful responses. The document also discusses the importance of psychological safety for team performance and how to create it through conversational turn-taking, acknowledging fallibility, validating ideas without personalizing them, and focusing on tasks rather than relationships.
The psychology of decision making
1. The document discusses key insights from neuroscience and psychology research on human decision making. It explains that much of decision making happens unconsciously in the brain before we are consciously aware of it.
2. The brain processes information in parallel through both an automatic emotional system and a controlled cognitive system. The emotional system often influences decisions unconsciously through feelings, intuitions and impulses.
3. There are specialized regions of the brain involved in decision making, and certain areas like the insula are activated both by physical sensations and social emotions like rejection or empathy. Understanding how the brain works can provide insights for influencing behavior.
Islamabad presentation psychosocial areas
This document discusses diagnosis and classification of psychological problems. It begins with quotes about the human experience and explores common questions people may have during times of distress. It then provides information on brain structure and development, noting how experiences shape neural connections. Gender differences in brain structure are also summarized. The document defines abnormal behavior and outlines approaches used in psychological assessment, including subjective distress, disability, conformity to norms, and violations of social norms. It introduces the DSM-IV-TR diagnostic system and discusses objective tests that may be used in evaluating psychological functioning.

This document discusses several philosophical theories of mind:
1) The mind is biological in nature and closely tied to brain states (John Searle's view).
2) The mind can be understood as a series of functional states that process inputs and outputs (functionalism).
3) Mental states are just physical states of the brain and are identical to neural patterns (identity theory).
4) The concept of mind may be eliminated as our understanding of the brain improves (eliminative materialism).

Cognitive behavior approach to psychopathology
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment for psychopathology according to research. Meta-analyses show large effect sizes for CBT in treating various disorders like depression and anxiety. CBT is more cost-effective than medication and lowers relapse risk after treatment ends compared to antidepressants alone. While medication and CBT are both effective, combining the two may produce the best outcomes for severe depression.
Natalia Olszewska "Neuroscience for Architecture and Autonomy"
1) The presentation discusses how neuroscience insights can inform architectural design to support human autonomy and experience. It outlines three drivers of autonomy - executive control, deliberation with time and effort, and freedom from external influences.
2) The neuroscience of architectural experience involves sensory-motor systems, emotions and evaluation, and learning and stored knowledge interacting with the prefrontal cortex and decision making. Design can enhance autonomy by facilitating comprehension, awareness of framing, inclusion and participation.
3) Restorative design that considers the interior milieu and environment can support autonomy by allowing the "high road" of thinking with the prefrontal cortex rather than automatic reactions from subcortical regions.

Neuroscienze e Libero Arbitrio
The document discusses several studies examining conscious intentions and the experience of free will. It summarizes that reported time of intention (W-judgment) in tasks like the Libet task is based on inferential processes, not just pre-action brain processes. Studies find action monitoring processes and external feedback influence W-judgment. Another study found that manipulating beliefs about free will impacted early motor preparation processes before conscious intention, as measured by readiness potential amplitude. The document concludes experience of intention incorporates both pre-action and post-action processes, and it is better to believe in free will due to behavioral effects.
Prefrontal Cortex
The prefrontal cortex is located at the front of the brain in the frontal lobes. It is responsible for executive functions like decision making, problem solving, and social behavior. Studies have shown that the prefrontal cortex is activated when associating symbols with quantities, and that damage to this area affects moral reasoning and risk assessment. The prefrontal cortex becomes less active during creative improvisation compared to well-practiced tasks. Dysfunction in this region is linked to issues with social behavior, decision making, and conditions like schizophrenia.

Human Computer Confluence
The document discusses the CEEDs project, which aims to exploit implicit processing to help humans make sense of large, complex datasets. The CEEDs project develops new sensors and technologies to measure people's implicit reactions to visualizations of big data, even when they are not consciously aware of their reactions. A "Sentient Agent" model uses measures like heart rate, skin conductance and eye tracking to infer user engagement and guide them through the data. The document provides examples of applying CEEDs technology in archaeology and neuroscience to help classify artifacts, analyze ancient cities, and explore brain connectivity networks.
Giftedness: Understanding Everyday Neurobiology for Self-Knowledge
In the realm of behavioral neuroscience and genomics, the phenomenon of giftedness manifests through a series of distinct neurobiological characteristics, which significantly contribute to self-awareness. In my personal experience, this became evident through the correlation between genetic patterns and specific behavioral expressions. The analysis of behavioral phenotypes, such as cognitive acceleration, emotional oscillations, enhanced selective memory, hyperfocus, and exacerbated creativity, suggests a strong interconnection with certain genetic polymorphisms. These polymorphisms may be implicated in modulating specific neurochemical pathways, as well as in regulating neurotransmitters.
Reflective in Psychology
This summary provides an overview of the key points from the document in 3 sentences:
The document discusses three cognitive perspectives - cognitive, humanistic, and sociocultural - and how they shed light on understanding behavior. For the cognitive perspective, it examines how biological and thought processes influence behavior. The humanistic perspective views behavior as acquiring knowledge to understand one's environment and make appropriate choices. Finally, the sociocultural perspective sees behavior as observable and influenced by imitating others and following social and cultural norms.

Book mindset kinetics and crime behavior quantitative methods a new forensic...M. Luisetto Pharm.D.Spec. Pharmacology
This document summarizes research on using quantitative methods and physiological measurements to help understand criminal behavior and assess culpability in legal cases. It reviews literature showing that conditions like abnormal amygdala and limbic system activation can influence emotions and impulse control. The authors argue that objectively measuring these systems could provide additional context for legal decisions, rather than as direct evidence. They propose developing diagnostic tests to characterize stress responses and treatments for pathological conditions. While neuroscience hasn't yet determined criminal responsibility, it may help challenge understandings as the field advances.Similar to Greene Presentation (20)

The document discusses how Web 2.0 technologies can help apply the seven principles of good practice in undergraduate education. It defines Web 2.0 as network-based applications that improve through use and allow users to share and remix content. Specific Web 2.0 tools are presented like Diigo, Google Docs, Netvibes and how they encourage interaction, cooperation, active learning and feedback in line with the principles.
Selected to Stereotype - Donelan
The document discusses stereotypes and implicit bias. It notes that the amygdala activates within 30 milliseconds when exposed to faces, signaling vigilance, while the prefrontal cortex activates within 0.5 seconds, indicating internal conflict as one tries to overcome bias. While stereotypes were more common in the past between in-groups and out-groups, society has established more structures over time like the Voting Rights Act of 1965 to better support equality. Though humans still have predispositions due to our evolutionary past, we can control our behaviors through memes that promote values of equality, fairness and tolerance.

While religion strongly impacts moral views, the document argues that morality predates religion and that evolution explains humans' innate sense of altruism and conscience, as seen in other social animal species like chimpanzees. It notes that some fear learning about evolution may undermine morality, though others see an opportunity to find purpose and meaning within our finite existence.
Nanotechnology
The document discusses nanotechnology and how it allows working at the nanoscale level. It describes how nanotechnology could be used in areas like cosmetics, dentistry, medicine, vehicles, and computers. It also discusses potential risks of nanotechnology like health risks and environmental risks due to the small scale and lack of knowledge. The document advocates for using both empirical scientific research along with philosophy to forecast and evaluate implications of nanotechnology through informed imagination.

Blade Runner is a 1982 science fiction film directed by Ridley Scott and starring Harrison Ford. It takes place in a dystopian Los Angeles in 2019 where genetically engineered replicants, which are visually indistinguishable from humans, are slaves used off-world. When some replicants begin to display independent and aggressive behavior, a police squad known as "Blade Runners" are tasked with hunting down and killing rogue replicants. Edward James Olmos co-stars in the film.
Building Community
The document discusses using social software like blogs, wikis, and media sharing tools to build community and facilitate collaboration among students. It provides examples of different types of social software and potential benefits of using these tools in education, like generating excitement, cultivating social skills, and providing feedback. The document also addresses questions about how to implement social software for community building, such as choosing applications, creating assignments, training faculty and students, and taking a gradual approach.
