A surprising number of American parents are giving their children melatonin for sleeping. 😴 This fits in a larger trend of modern life: a counterproductive need for control, which leaves us less resilient to adversity and change. 🧠 Read more ==> jeroenvanbaar.substack.com/p/what-the-upt…

Impulse control disorder in Parkinson’s disease is associated with abnormal frontal value signalling academic.oup.com/brain/article/…
New preprint with @nathanieldaw: Humans can distinguish volatility (rate of change or diffusion noise) & moment-to-moment stochasticity (or observation noise) and adjust their learning adaptively. As theoretically expected, these have opposite effects on humans' learning rate.
Thanks @ErnoHermans, Benno Roozendaal, @wirz_lisa and Kübra Gülmez @Kbra775 for organizing this wonderful summerschool @stresscog #stressandcognition #ss23 . I learned a lot!
What a fantastic experience! A dream lineup and a great organization! Thanks, @stresscog, for generating such an amazing environment to discuss and reflect on stress research.
Tichelaar et al. show that individuals with PD who have impulse control disorders are particularly sensitive to rewards when on DAergic medication, and this reward sensitivity is associated with increased value signalling in mPFC. tinyurl.com/2p9b5me7
Come work with us on an exciting project with @MasudHusain @brain_apps @littleneuro exploring the links between neurotransmitter function and motivation and effort-based decision making. Funded by a @wellcometrust discovery award. @OxPsychiatry my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…
