The paper uses fMRI and a deep neural network to assess memory maturation in children aged 3-7, finding that hippocampal development drives memory pattern maturation.

The paper investigates how individual differences in sustained attention affect neural semantic encoding of narratives using fMRI and LLM embeddings, finding that attention shifts representations toward gist-level formats.

This study shows that brain synchrony during shared reminiscing in romantic couples predicts stronger connection and better memory of the conversation.

The paper examines how trait anxiety affects neural event segmentation during movie-watching, finding that high-anxiety individuals show more idiosyncratic event boundaries.

The paper develops a connectome-based neural reference space for arousal by showing dynamic connectivity captures shared dynamics across affective, autonomic, and wakefulness arousal measures.

The paper investigates how neural patterns representing causally related past events are reinstated and updated in the brain during moments of narrative insight.

The paper investigates how the brain updates social impressions during movie watching, finding that neural synchrony and insight moments drive impression changes.

The paper examines neural responses in individuals with intermittent explosive disorder (IED) during social-emotional processing and finds idiosyncratic neural patterns compared to healthy controls.

The paper shows emotional arousal improves memory recall by enhancing functional integration of brain networks during narrative processing.

This study shows that ongoing thoughts during rest are reflected in brain connectivity and predict individual behavioral differences.

The paper introduces a model that predicts whole-brain fMRI activity from prefrontal fNIRS signals during movie-watching, showing significant prediction in 66 out of 122 brain regions.

The paper investigates how hostile attribution bias affects neural synchrony in the left ventromedial prefrontal cortex during social narratives, finding it correlates with attributional complexity and can be classified from neural data.

The paper identifies a generalizable arousal representation from dynamic functional connectivity across different individuals and movie-watching contexts, while finding no evidence of a generalizable valence representation.

The paper shows that amygdala activity biases perceptual decisions towards desired outcomes by enhancing sensory evidence processing during decision-making.

The paper shows that heightened arousal, measured by pupil dilation, biases perceptual decisions towards motivationally desirable outcomes during visual categorization tasks.

The paper introduces a benchmark dataset of fMRI data from human subjects listening to naturalistic stories for evaluating language and narrative comprehension models.

The paper examines how conservative and liberal attitudes lead to polarized neural responses to political content, identifying brain regions and language features that drive these differences.

The paper investigates how reward motivation affects perceptual judgments and finds that motivation biases neural representations in visual cortex.

The paper investigates how neural patterns of memory encoding and imagination are shared across individuals through verbal communication, finding similar patterns in the default mode network during encoding, recall, and imagination.

The paper investigates neural representations of shared memories during naturalistic recall using fMRI, finding similar spatial patterns and memory structures across individuals.
