Fragile streak goals induce pressure responses and an inverted-U performance pattern

This paper induces pressure through a fragile streak goal in a force-control task, showing an inverted-U performance pattern and increased physiological responses, but no consistent group-level signatures of pressure effects.

Modulating supplementary motor area excitability enhances groove-related pleasure during music listening

The paper investigates the causal role of supplementary motor area (SMA) in groove experience during music listening using transcranial magnetic stimulation and finds that SMA stimulation modulates musical pleasure.

Individual bounded rationality destabilizes cooperative dynamics in human-AI groups

This study shows that human bounded rationality reduces performance in human-AI cooperative tasks compared to all-AI groups.

Trying to be unpredictable even against unobserved opponents shifts humans away from randomness but not from human predictability

The paper shows that humans generate sequences to evade prediction, but these sequences remain predictable due to biases in how people estimate others' predictions.
