Laboratory of Emotion and Decision-Making

The Laboratory of Emotion and Decision-Making studies how our feelings influence the choices we make. Researchers explore how emotions like fear, joy, or anxiety affect decision processes, aiming to understand the underlying brain mechanisms. The lab uses psychological tests, brain imaging, and experiments to investigate how emotions shape our judgments, risk-taking, and behavior. Insights from this research can help improve mental health treatments, enhance decision-making strategies, and better understand human behavior in everyday life. Overall, it combines psychology and neuroscience to understand the complex link between emotion and decision-making.
