The paper introduces the CLIMATE BRAIN dataset, a multimodal resource containing questionnaire, behavioral, and neuroimaging data on climate change from 160 individuals.

Learning about threat from friends and strangers is equally effective: an fMRI study on observational fear conditioning

This study uses fMRI to show that observational fear learning from friends and strangers produces similar brain activity patterns, suggesting familiarity does not enhance threat learning.

Emotion schema effects on associative memory differ across emotion categories at the behavioural, physiological and neural level

The paper investigates how emotion schemas affect associative memory across different emotion categories, showing differences in behavioral, physiological, and neural responses between disgust and fear.

Distinct medial-temporal lobe mechanisms of encoding and amygdala-mediated memory reinstatement for disgust and fear

The paper investigates how disgust and fear memories are encoded and reinstated, finding distinct neural mechanisms and amygdala involvement in memory reinstatement for disgust.

Universal brain signature of emerging reading in two contrasting languages

This study identifies a universal brain signature of emerging reading in 7-year-olds across two languages, showing limited variation with differences linked to orthographic transparency.

Observed but Never Experienced - Vicarious Learning of Fear Under Ecological Conditions

This study investigates observational fear learning by having observers watch a friend perform a fear-conditioning task in real time, finding that emotional reactions and contingency learning both contribute to the process.

Wasting food is disgusting: Evidence from behavioral and neuroimaging study of moral judgment of food-wasting behavior

The paper investigates moral judgments of food-wasting behavior using behavioral and neuroimaging data, finding that food-wasting is seen as morally wrong and linked to disgust.

Can pornography be addictive? An fMRI study of men seeking treatment for problematic pornography use.

This study uses fMRI to examine neural responses to erotic and monetary cues in men with and without problematic pornography use, finding increased ventral striatum activation in those with PPU.
