“…The relation of valence to SPN is not well understood (discussed in Brunia et al, ; Ohgami et al, ). When expected gain and loss conditions are directly compared, results show either equally large SPNs (Angus et al, ; Donkers, Niewenhuis, & van Boxtel, ; Zheng et al, ), larger ones in certain conditions with expected gain (Li et al, ; Zhang et al, ; Zheng, Li, Wang, Wu, & Liu, ), or a relative topographical shift toward the left hemisphere for potential gain contexts (Ohgami et al, ). No study has reported larger SPN amplitudes in a loss than gain context, to our knowledge.…”

If you know that you are the author of a freely chosen action and that you bear responsibility for its outcome, then you are said to have “a sense of agency.” When there is a delay between action and outcome, this response must be remembered if you are to learn from the experience. Previous studies have shown that the Stimulus‐Preceding Negativity (SPN) recorded during the delay interval is larger under conditions that foster a sense of agency. In an EEG experiment (N = 27), we confirmed that the SPN is larger when participants have a choice between two responses in a gambling task as compared to when there is only a single button and the computer determines the monetary outcome. This SPN agency effect was largest over right prefrontal cortex and it did not vary significantly between trial blocks in which only gains or only losses were possible. Participants in a second experiment (N = 26) performed the same task while activity in anterior insular cortex, a known SPN generator, was measured via functional magnetic resonance image (fMRI). An essentially identical pattern of results was obtained: Activity was greater on choice than no‐choice trials, especially for the right hemisphere, and no effect of contextual valence was observed. Although parallel observations such as these cannot warrant causal inference, our findings are consistent with the assumption that anterior insular cortex contributes to the effect of agency on the SPN.

The question of how the brain represents reward prediction errors is central to reinforcement learning and adaptive, goal‐directed behavior. Previous studies have revealed prediction error representations in multiple electrophysiological signatures, but it remains elusive whether these electrophysiological correlates underlying prediction errors are sensitive to valence (in a signed form) or to salience (in an unsigned form). One possible reason concerns the loose correspondence between objective probability and subjective prediction resulting from the optimistic bias, that is, the tendency to overestimate the likelihood of encountering positive future events. In the present electroencephalography (EEG) study, we approached this question by directly measuring participants' idiosyncratic, trial‐to‐trial prediction errors elicited by subjective and objective probabilities across two experiments. We adopted monetary gain and loss feedback in Experiment 1 and positive and negative feedback as communicated by the same zero‐value feedback in Experiment 2. We provided electrophysiological evidence in time and time‐frequency domains supporting both reward and salience prediction error signals. Moreover, we showed that these electrophysiological signatures were highly flexible and sensitive to an optimistic bias and various forms of salience. Our findings shed new light on multiple presentations of prediction error in the human brain, which differ in format and functional role.

“…Clarity and transparency are not only rewarding, they are key ingredients for organizational performance (Gartenberg, Andrea, & George, 2016). Uncertainty and ambiguity create varying degrees of threat response (Chew, Ebstein, & Zhong, 2012; Kapp, Whalen, Supple, & Pascoe, 1992), depending upon the situation and the person (Tanovic, Gee, & Joormann, 2018), leading to increased levels of anxiety (de Berker et al, 2016) and stress (de Berker et al, 2016), negativity, and perceptions of pain—be it physical (e.g., Ma, Qiu, Fu, & Sun, 2018; Tanovic, Gee, & Joormann, 2018) or social (Li et al, 2018).…”

The last decade has seen an explosion of social “neuroscience” within the field of leadership development and organizational consulting—both in the research literature and in popular press. The challenge has been sorting out fact from fiction, determining which elements of the science are most relevant to helping our clients, and then translating that science into practical skills and behaviors. The intent of this article is to highlight those aspects of brain science that are most relevant to our consulting clients by introducing the CONNECT© model—a framework for consultants to identify behaviors and strategies that they can incorporate into a “brain friendly” toolkit for work with clients. This model is an attempt to apply what the science tells us about how people are “wired” to connect with others and what happens cognitively, emotionally, and behaviorally when social needs are met or are threatened.
