Unconscious Processing in Decision-making
Behavioral Evidence on the Modulators of Unconscious Processing in Decision-making
This behavioral study on healthy participants aims to provide a baseline reference for assessing alterations of decision-making performance in pathological conditions. To this purpose, this single center non-interventional behavioral study will assess the extent to which decision-making performance is affected by distinct experimental manipulations, as well as by ageing effects, in 200 healthy individuals. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- to what extent is decision-making performance stable, within individuals, regardless of non-economic manipulations concerning stimuli perceptual features as well as type of processing and motor response required to participants?
- are these manipulations additionally influenced by participants' age?
Healthy participants will be recruited for distinct behavioral studies assessing the effects of the aforementioned manipulations of distinct metrics of decision-making performance, such as loss aversion, risk aversion, and delay discounting.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Individual index of loss aversion
Time Frame: Behavioral-study day 1
|
This variable reflect the spontaneous disposition to overweigh potential losses, compared with equivalent gains in decision-making, resulting in the tendency to avoid potential losses more than approach potential gains.
|
Behavioral-study day 1
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Individual index of risk aversion
Time Frame: Behavioral-study day 1
|
This variable reflect the spontaneous preference for certain, compared with probabilistic, outcomes, resulting in the tendency to avoid risky options regardless of their expected value.
|
Behavioral-study day 1
|
Individual index of delay discounting
Time Frame: Behavioral-study day 1
|
This variable reflects the tendency to discount delayed utilities/rewards compared with immediate ones, resulting in choices driven by the impulsive search for immediate gains regardless of potential larger future outcomes.
