The Yu Emotion Sicence (YES) Lab!!

Why humans are curious about how the self is evaluated (like checking Facebook or doing personality test)? We investigated this question and the underlying computational and modular mechanism. See our NEW preprint!! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our new preprint!psyarxiv.com/ecqgf/ We find: 1. Stronger karmic beliefs in more prosocial individuals; 2. Prosocials were more optimistic about the future of morally good (than bad) agents, while individualists were not.

A new paper from our lab reveals an important role oxytocin (OT) played in optimistic belief formation and updating. pnas.org/cgi/content/lo…
