DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2020.12.035
Abstract: In everyday life, risky decision-making relies on multiple cognitive processes including sensitivity to reinforcers, exploration, learning, and forgetting. Neuroimaging evidence suggests that the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) is involved in exploration and risky decision-making, but… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2216315120
Abstract: Behavioral science interventions have the potential to address longstanding policy problems, but their effects are typically heterogeneous across contexts (e.g., teachers, schools, and geographic regions). This contextual heterogeneity is poorly understood, however, which reduces the… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.896369
Abstract: Background The association between snoring and erectile dysfunction (ED) is inconsistent in multiple observational studies. To clarify the causal association of snoring on ED, we performed this two-sample Mendelian randomization study. Materials and Methods The… read more here.
