Transient Cognitive Dynamics, Metastability, and Decision Making
The idea that cognitive activity can be understood using nonlinear dynamics has been intensively discussed at length for the last 15 years. One of the popular points of view is that metastable states play a key role in the execution of cognitive functions. Experimental and modeling studies suggest that most of these functions are the result of transient activity of large-scale brain networks in...
متن کاملTemporal Dynamics of Cognitive-Emotional Interplay in Moral Decision-making
This study investigated the temporal dynamics of emotional and cognitive processing underlying decision-making in moral judgment. Thirty-seven participants were presented with a set of 60 dilemmas varying in whether killing one individual was an intended means to save others (instrumental dilemmas) or a foreseen but unintended consequence (incidental dilemmas). Participants were required to dec...
متن کاملCognitive Reflection and Decision Making
P eople with higher cognitive ability (or “IQ”) differ from those with lower cognitive ability in a variety of important and unimportant ways. On average, they live longer, earn more, have larger working memories, faster reaction times and are more susceptible to visual illusions (Jensen, 1998). Despite the diversity of phenomena related to IQ, few have attempted to understand—or even describe—...
متن کاملSynaptic dynamics and decision making.
During decision making between sequential stimuli, the first stimulus must be held in memory and then compared with the second. Here, we show that in systems that encode the stimuli by their firing rate, neurons can use synaptic facilitation not only to remember the first stimulus during the delay but during the presentation of the second stimulus so that they respond to a combination of the fi...
متن کاملCognitive Aspects of Decision Making
What are we in the Modeling & Simulation (M&S;)community to do with the volumes of ‘human terrain’ datanow being published by the military and others indatabases of the demographics and needs/values/norms ofpopulations of interest? This paper suggests that the M&S;community would be remiss if it did not rise to thischallenge and suggest next steps for the use of this human...
