Contributions of the Prefrontal Cortex to Social Cognition and Moral Judgment Processes / Chad E Forbes, Joshua C Poore, Jordan Grafman -- Emotion and Moral Cognition / Michael Koenigs -- The Neuroanatomical Basis of Moral Cognition and Emotion / Roland Zahn, Ricardo de Oliveira-Souza, Jorge Moll -- Envy and Schadenfreude: The Neural Correlates of Competitive Emotions / Jonathan Dvash, Simone G Shamay-Tsoory -- Genes and Decision Making. The Somatic Marker Framework and the Neurological Basis of Decision Making / Antoine Bechara -- A Model of the Initial Stages of Drug Abuse: From Reinforcement Learning to Social Contagion / Gilly Koritzky, Adi Luria, Eldad Yechiam -- Extrinsic Effects and Models of Dominance Hierarchy Formation / Matthew Druen, Lee Alan Dugatkin -- Complex Social Cognition and the Appreciation of Social Norms in Psychiatric Disorders: Insights from Evolutionary Game Theory / Martin Brune, Julia Wischniewski -- From Neuroeconomics to Genetics: The Intertemporal Choices Case as an Example / Itzhak Aharon, Sacha Bourgeois-Gironde -- Index.
Summary: Decision-making is an integral part of our daily lives. Researchers seek a complete understanding of the decision-making process, including the biological and social basis and the impact of our decisions. From DNA to Social Cognition fills a gap in the literature that brings together the methods, perspectives, and knowledge of the geneticists, neuroscientists, economists, and psychologists that are integral to this field of research. The editors' unique expertise ensures an integrated and complete compilation of materials that will prove useful to researchers and scientists interested in social cognition and decision-making.
