Neural computations underlying social risk sensitivity
Under standard models of expected utility, preferences over stochastic events are assumed to be independent of the source of uncertainty. Thus, in decision-making, an agent should exhibit consistent preferences, regardless of whether the uncertainty derives from the unpredictability of a random process or the unpredictability of a social partner. However, when a social partner is the source of ...
متن کاملGreat expectations: neural computations underlying the use of social norms in decision-making.
Social expectations play a critical role in everyday decision-making. However, their precise neuro-computational role in the decision process remains unknown. Here we adopt a decision neuroscience framework by combining methods and theories from psychology, economics and neuroscience to outline a novel, expectation-based, computational model of social preferences. Results demonstrate that this ...
متن کاملComputations Underlying Social Hierarchy Learning: Distinct Neural Mechanisms for Updating and Representing Self-Relevant Information
Knowledge about social hierarchies organizes human behavior, yet we understand little about the underlying computations. Here we show that a Bayesian inference scheme, which tracks the power of individuals, better captures behavioral and neural data compared with a reinforcement learning model inspired by rating systems used in games such as chess. We provide evidence that the medial prefrontal...
متن کاملNeural computations underlying inverse reinforcement learning in the human brain
In inverse reinforcement learning an observer infers the reward distribution available for actions in the environment solely through observing the actions implemented by another agent. To address whether this computational process is implemented in the human brain, participants underwent fMRI while learning about slot machines yielding hidden preferred and non-preferred food outcomes with varyi...
متن کاملLearning in Games: Neural Computations underlying Strategic Learning
The past decade has witnessed remarkable growth in our understanding of the brain basis of economic decision-making. In particular, research is uncovering not only the location of brain regions where decision processes take place, but also the nature of the economically meaningful latent variables that are represented, as well as their relationship to behavior. This transition from understandin...
