Neural markers of social dominance: A female-focused perspective

Michael Herzog, Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz, Wei-Hsiang Lin

Social interactions are fundamental to human life, with social dominance being a key factor in these interactions. Previous studies have shown that dominant males are faster in decision-making tasks compared to non-dominant ones, even in the absence of a s ...

Intact reinforcement learning in healthy ageing

Michael Herzog, Wei-Hsiang Lin

What changes with age? Results in reinforcement learning (RL) are mixed. Some studies found deteriorated RL performance in older participants compared to younger controls whereas other studies did not. Daniel et al. (J Neurosci 40(5):1084–1096, 2020. 10.15 ...

To what extent do EEG measures reflect performance in perceptual tests?

Michael Herzog, Simona Adele Garobbio, Wei-Hsiang Lin

In many studies, EEG measures reflect performance in visual and cognitive tests, as determined by averages across different conditions or groups of participants. Based on these results, one might expect that there is also a significant correlation between ...

Search for high-mass exclusive diphoton production with tagged protons in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV

Matthias Finger, Qian Wang, Varun Sharma, Konstantin Androsov, Jan Steggemann, Ian Smith, Xin Chen, Rakesh Chawla, Michele De Palma, Matteo Galli

A search is presented for high-mass exclusive diphoton production via photon-photon fusion in proton-proton collisions at root s = 13 TeV in events where both protons survive the interaction. The analysis utilizes data corresponding to an integrated lumino ...

Unveiling the complexity of learning and decision-making

Wei-Hsiang Lin

Reinforcement learning (RL) is crucial for learning to adapt to new environments. In RL, the prediction error is an important component that compares the expected and actual rewards. Dopamine plays a critical role in encoding these prediction errors. In my ...

The EEG multiverse of schizophrenia

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz, Patricia Figueiredo, Wei-Hsiang Lin, Dario Alejandro Gordillo Lopez

Research on schizophrenia typically focuses on one paradigm for which clear-cut differences between patients and controls are established. Great efforts are made to understand the underlying genetical, neurophysiological, and cognitive mechanisms, which ev ...

Context effects on probability estimation

Wei-Hsiang Lin

Many decisions rely on how we evaluate potential outcomes and estimate their corresponding probabilities of occurrence. Outcome evaluation is subjective because it requires consulting internal preferences and is sensitive to context. In contrast, probabili ...
