This study investigates the neural correlates of appraisal processes and discrete emotions using fMRI, finding shared brain regions and better explanation by appraisal theories.

This study shows GPT-4 can predict human emotion ratings and model associated neural responses with high accuracy.

This study uses fMRI to investigate brain regions associated with approach and avoidance tendencies toward physical activity and sedentary stimuli, finding distinct neural correlates for each behavior.

This study identifies distinct ventral striatum subregions involved in motivational and hedonic aspects of reward processing using fMRI and behavioral tasks.

The paper introduces a 3D printed pacifier-shaped mouthpiece for fMRI-compatible gustometers, validated through significant activation in taste-processing brain regions using a large sample.

This review examines automatic reactions to exercise and sedentary behaviors, finding physical activity as a reward but limited evidence for sedentary behaviors as a reward.
