Summary

This observational study will use brain scans (fMRI) and facial expression recordings to understand how emotions influence decision-making in everyday situations. 120 healthy adults aged 18-45 will perform tasks that mimic real-life choices while their brain activity and facial expressions are measured. The goal is to map the brain networks involved in the interplay between emotions and self-organized behavior.
