The power of asking: How communication affects selfishness, empathy, and altruism (2011, neutral): “Leading theories include kin selection (Hamilton, 1964), reciprocity (Nowak and Sigmund, 2005; Trivers, 1971) and norm adherence through sanctions (Gurerk et al., 2006; Fehr and Gächter, 2002; De Quervain et al., 2004).”
The basal ganglia: learning new tricks and loving it. (2005, background): “Remarkably, the caudate nucleus — dorsal striatum — appears to be selectively activated, along with a restricted number of limbic sites, under conditions evoking romantic or maternal love [41 ,42] or, in two-person trust games, in relation to ‘intention to trust’ or ‘altruistic punishment’ [43 ,44 ]”
Social neuroeconomics: the neural circuitry of social preferences. (2007, methodology): “A study using PET [27] examined this hypothesis in the context of a PD game with a punishment opportunity similar to the one described in Table 1e.”
Affective Influences on Energy-Related Decisions and Behaviors (2014, background): “Importantly, neuroimaging results indicate that the trade-off of immediate individual gain for the long-term advantage of the group is driven by neural regions involved in the experience of reward and emotions (Sanfey et al., 2003; de Quervain et al., 2004).”
Leadership and individual differences: At the cusp of a renaissance (2012, positive): “…is currently leading the way in biological underpinnings of microeconomic behavior as evidence by the work of Ernst Fehr and his collegues (e.g., de Quervain et al., 2004; Fehr, 2008; Fehr & Camerer, 2007; Fliessbach et al., 2007; Knoch, Pascual-Leone, Meyer, Treyer, & Fehr, 2006; Knoch,…”
Tribal Social Instincts and the Cultural Evolution of Institutions to Solve Collective Action Problems (2012, neutral): “There are now plausible theoretical answers to the above questions, and in some cases there is an overabundance of plausible answers.”
Habits, rituals, and the evaluative brain. (2008, background): “…love and romantic love (Aron et al. 2005, Bartels & Zeki 2004) and in social situations mimicked by interactive games and cost-benefit protocols (de Quervain et al. 2004, Elliott et al. 2004, Harbaugh et al. 2007, King-Casas et al. 2005, Montague & Berns 2002, O’Doherty et al. 2004, Tricomi et al.…”
The German Socio-Economic Panel Study (SOEP) - Scope, Evolution and Enhancements (2007, neutral): “…SOEP is one of the data sets that has always allowed for meaning- 3 See, e.g., Camerer et al.
