The Philosophy of Economics: Neuroeconomics: Using Neuroscience to Make Economic Predictions (2007, neutral): “Ambiguity-aversion has been implicated in home bias in financial investment (a preference for investing in stocks in one’s own country, or firm, or firms nearby), in robust control in macroeconomics, and in other economic domains (Hsu et al., 2005).”
Resolving emotional conflict: a role for the rostral anterior cingulate cortex in modulating activity in the amygdala. (2006, background): “Moreover, previous studies have also found that the amygdala is particularly sensitive to ambiguity (a type of conflict), both in the context of interpreting facial expressions (Kim et al., 2003, 2004) and in the context of uncertainty during decision making ( Hsu et al., 2005 ).”
NEUROBIOLOGY OF ECONOMIC CHOICE: A GOOD-BASED MODEL (2011, background): “Along similar lines, Hsu et al. (2005) found that OFC patients are much less adverse to ambiguity compared with normal subjects.”
The neural correlates of subjective value during intertemporal choice (2007, neutral): “In choice tasks, these three areas show greater activity during choices that involve large gains than during choices that involve small gains 13 , 23 , 42 , 43 , as well as greater activity during choices that involve small losses than during choices that involve large losses 44 .”
NEUROECONOMICS: A CRITICAL RECONSIDERATION (2008, neutral): “…Delgado et al. (2000), Elliott et al. (2000), Knutson et al. (2000), Dickhaut et al. (2003), McClure et al. (2004, 2007), Rilling et al. (2004), Hsu et al. (2005), Harbaugh et al. (2007) and Chandrasekhar et al. (2008) used 9, 9, 12, 9, 20 (experiment 1) and 14 (experiment 2), 14, 19, 16, 19…”
Neural correlates of voluntary and involuntary risk taking in the human brain: An fMRI Study of the Balloon Analog Risk Task (BART) (2008, background): “…numerous previous studies have consistently demonstrated the involvement of mesolimbic-frontal regions in decisionmaking (Matthews et al., 2004; Hsu et al., 2005; Kuhnen and Knutson 2005;Huettel et al., 2006; Preuschoff et al., 2006), few if any studies have dissociated the neural substrates…”
Temporal self-regulation theory: A model for individual health behavior (2007, result): “Interestingly, however, there is new evidence to suggest that the neural systems activated in decision-making under conditions of uncertainty are consistent with those suggested by TST as being essential for future-oriented behavior (Hsu, Bhatt, Adolphs, Tranel, & Camerer, 2005 ).”
Ambiguity Aversion, Robustness, and the Variational Representation of Preferences (2006, background): “psychological and neuroscience literatures and it is the object of current research (see Hsu, Bhatt, Adolphs, Tranel and Camerer [ 29 ] and Rustichini [46]); for this reason, we do not expatiate further on this interpretation.”
Orbitofrontal cortex and its contribution to decision-making. (2007, background): “Neuroimaging studies have revealed that multiple brain areas activate during decisions involving uncertainty, including OFC and MPFC (Hsu et al. 2005, Knutson et al. 2005), but also lateral PFC, parietal, cingulate, and insular cortex (Critchley et al. 2001, Kuhnen & Knutson 2005, Yoshida & Ishii…”
