We apply Dynamic Causal Models to electrocorticogram recordings from two macaque monkeys performing a problem-solving task that engages working memory, and induces time-on-task effects. We thus provide a computational account of changes in effective connectivity within two regions of the fronto-parietal network, the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex a...

Shared mobility systems (SMS) enable short-term on-demand access to mobility without the costs and responsibilities that come with vehicle ownership. A careful investigation of the motivation, values, and barriers that different socio-demographic groups have towards SMS may shed light on the gaps that mobility providers may still need to fill in or...

In this paper, we provide a computational account of changes in synaptic connectivity within two regions of the fronto-parietal network, the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the pre-supplementary motor area, applying Dynamic Causal Models to electrocorticogram recordings from two macaque monkeys performing a problem-solving task that engages work...

Emotion elicited through music transfers to subsequent processing of facial expressions. Music may accordingly function as a social technology by promoting social bonding. Here, we investigated whether music would cross-modally influence the perception of sensual touch, a behavior related to mating. A robot applied precisely controlled gentle touch...
