Changes in global functional network properties predict individual differences in habit formation
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Human Brain Mapping"
DOI: 10.1002/hbm.26158
Abstract: Prior evidence suggests that sensorimotor regions play a crucial role in habit formation. Yet, whether and how their global functional network properties might contribute to a more comprehensive characterization of habit formation still remains unclear.… read more here.

Interfacing behavioral and neural circuit models for habit formation
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Journal of Neuroscience Research"
DOI: 10.1002/jnr.24581
Abstract: Habits are an important mechanism by which organisms can automate the control of behavior to alleviate cognitive demand. However, transitions to habitual control are risky because they lead to inflexible responding in the face of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10957-017-1073-8
Abstract: In this paper, we study an economic model, where internal habits play a role. Their formation is described by a more general functional form than is usually assumed in the literature, because a finite memory… read more here.

Proprioceptive stimuli and habit formation: Interresponse time mediated behavior in CD-1 mice
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Behavioural Processes"
DOI: 10.1016/j.beproc.2018.02.015
Abstract: The consolidation of behavioral sequences into relatively ballistic habits is thought to involve the formation of stimulus - response associations. Typically, the stimuli in these associations are assumed to be exteroceptive, i.e., external to the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.enpol.2020.111809
Abstract: Abstract The existing climate models ignore the behavioral anomalies of households and conclude that the optimal environmental tax rate should comove with business cycles. However, this assumption has received extensive criticism recently. To this end,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jbtep.2021.101676
Abstract: BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Dysfunction in reward processing is a hallmark feature of depression. In the context of reinforcement learning, previous research has linked depression with reliance on simple habit-driven ('model-free') learning strategies over more complex,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jesp.2018.08.004
Abstract: Abstract Creating active classroom environments and reducing excessive student sitting requires changes in teachers' behaviours. This study examines a teacher training intervention, which aimed to increase the extent to which teachers use strategies to interrupt… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.yhbeh.2022.105172
Abstract: Habit formation is thought to involve two parallel processes that are mediated by distinct neural substates: one that suppresses goal-directed behavior, and one that facilitates stimulus-response (S-R) learning, which underscores habitual behavior. In previous studies… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gbb.12489
Abstract: Schedule‐induced polydipsia (SIP) is an animal model of compulsive drinking that selects for individual differences and varies across rat strains. The aim of this study was to investigate excessive habit formation by analyzing the SIP… read more here.
