Brain activity of professional investors signals future stock performance

This study finds that brain activity in the nucleus accumbens of professional investors correlates with future stock performance, suggesting neuroforecasting may be feasible.

A multivariate brain signature for reward

The paper develops a Brain Reward Signature (BRS) using a LASSO-PCR model to predict reward and loss processing from brain activity, achieving high decoding accuracy across multiple tasks and samples.

Individual differences in (dis)honesty are represented in the brain's functional connectivity:Robust out-of-sample prediction of cheating behavior

This study predicts cheating behavior using brain connectivity patterns and finds that neural networks related to self-referential thinking and control are key predictors of honesty.

When honest people cheat, and cheaters are honest: Cognitive control processes override our moral default

The paper investigates how cognitive control influences honesty and dishonesty by examining neural activity in specific brain regions during a cheating task.
