The paper shows that biased neural replay of aversive and uncertain outcomes underlies irrational decision making in humans.

The paper shows that replay of reward and punishment paths during planning predicts approach and avoidance decisions, with replay of punishing paths influencing irrational choices in anxious individuals.

This study uses fMRI and computational modeling to show that fearful faces are perceived faster than neutral faces, involving accelerated evidence accumulation in fronto-parietal and visual areas.

The paper investigates how emotion and expectation interact in conscious perception by examining responses to neutral and fearful faces under different probability conditions using bCFS.

The paper identifies a subcortical pathway from the pulvinar to the amygdala in humans that enhances fear recognition through increased fibre density and dynamic coupling.
