New #SAMBAlab paper! @JosiDriessen used computational modelling and EEG to study how psychopathic traits are linked to learning what to choose when using social vs. reward information. w/@cognemo_andreea @D_Atanassova. @SSSpsychopathy @decisioncenter 👀👉rdcu.be/exNYf
Job Alert! We are looking for a PhD candidate that will study the computational underpinnings of how people learn moral rules in social contexts. Supervised by me and Rogier Mars (@NeuroecologyLab). Check it out/spread the word:

Extremely proud to share that this Monday, April 14th, I successfully defended my PhD dissertation, earning the distinction cum laude.
Thank you to my supervisors @IntiBrazil and Joukje Oosterman, my paranymphs, and everyone who made this day even more extraordinary and fun!

Happy to share that @IntiBrazil, @ATyborowska, Maaike Kempes and I have obtained a NWA innovative project within routes grant to study the underlying bio-cognitive processes of hostility biases!

Busy one indeed! Check this other paper on pain empathy and psychopathy led by @D_Atanassova! @decisioncenter @PsychopathyIs
A busy week for #SAMBAlab!
Our paper on the role of pain sensitivity in empathy for pain in psychopathy is out: nature.com/articles/s41598-0…
🧠 We found that people with certain high psychopathic traits feel less pain (incl. physical) which predicts lower empathy for others' pain
#SAMBAlab Paper alert, written by @D_Atanassova et al. Exploring when to exploit: The cognitive underpinnings of foraging-type decisions in relation to psychopathy. w/@cognemo_andreea,@chmathys & others. @SSSpsychopathy @SSSPStudents @decisioncenter👇🏾👀

Job alert! Postdoc in computational neuroscience of social decision making (with focus on social rule learning) w/ me, @NeuroecologyLab & @FrancescPoli. Read more about it here: tinyurl.com/353v5kjf
New paper on psychopathic traits and learning from pain during decision-making, led by @D_Atanassova. Read all about it below! 👀👇🏾 #SAMBAlab @decisioncenter @CommsPsychol
🧵Why do people with psychopathic traits stick to maladaptive patterns of behaviour?
The answer: a cognitive rigidity mechanism prompts them to ignore new evidence and maintain prior expectations in pain learning situations. 1/3

Curious to see if pain sensitivity relates to personality?
We were too: check out our meta-analysis on Big Five traits and experimental pain, hot off the press in Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews: sciencedirect.com/science/ar… @IntiBrazil @DondersInst

My lab @Georgetown is seeking 1-2 post-doctoral scholars. Our lab offers a unique opportunity to work with both people with psychopathy and people who have engaged in extraordinary acts of altruism (and to conduct behavioral, MRI, and intervention research). Please r/t and share.
