Mesolimbic Neurobehavioral Mechanisms of Reward Motivation in Anorexia Nervosa: A Multimodal Imaging Study
Open AccessReza Tadayonnejad, D S Adnan Majid et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2022
Diminished motivation to pursue and obtain primary and secondary rewards has been demonstrated in anorexia nervosa (AN). However, the neurobehavioral mechanisms underlying the behavioral activation component of aberrant reward motivation remains incompletely understood. This work aims to explore this underexplored facet of reward motivation in AN. We recruited female adolescents with AN, restricting type ( n = 32) and a healthy control group ( n …

Marketing actions can modulate neural representations of experienced pleasantness
Open AccessHilke Plassmann, John P O’doherty et al.ARTICLEProceedings of the National…2008
Despite the importance and pervasiveness of marketing, almost nothing is known about the neural mechanisms through which it affects decisions made by individuals. We propose that marketing actions, such as changes in the price of a product, can affect neural representations of experienced pleasantness. We tested this hypothesis by scanning human subjects using functional MRI while they tasted wines that, contrary to reality, they believed to be d…

Empathic neural responses are modulated by the perceived fairness of others
Open AccessThomas Singer, Tania Singer et al.ARTICLENature2006
Humans have the capacity to empathize with the pain of others, but we don't empathize in all circumstances. An experiment on human volunteers playing an economic game looked at the conditional nature of our sympathy, and the results show that fairness of social interactions is key to the empathic neural response. Both men and women empathized with the pain of cooperative people. But if people are selfish, empathic responses were absent, at least …
Empathy for Pain Involves the Affective but not Sensory Components of Pain
Open AccessThomas Singer, Tania Singer et al.ARTICLEScience2004
Our ability to have an experience of another's pain is characteristic of empathy. Using functional imaging, we assessed brain activity while volunteers experienced a painful stimulus and compared it to that elicited when they observed a signal indicating that their loved one—present in the same room—was receiving a similar pain stimulus. Bilateral anterior insula (AI), rostral anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), brainstem, and cerebellum were activa…

The 'gender gap' in final examination results at Oxford University
Open AccessJane Mellanby, Maryanne Martins et al.ARTICLEBritish Journal of Psychology2000Cited by: 8
A lower proportion of women than men obtain first class degrees at British universities (the so-called gender gap). At Oxford University, this difference is not seen in all degree subjects but is found both in some Arts and in some Science subjects. We have used a questionnaire administered under supervision to undergraduates 2 to 3 months before their final examination to assess factors which might be expected to affect examination performance. …
