This study explores the impact of integrative complexity (IC) and syntactic complexity (SC) on decision-making under uncertainty. The research addresses how cognitive structures contribute to decision quality in ambiguous situations. A modified Ellsberg experiment was conducted using an online platform.

Article Synopsis
  • Wilson disease is a genetic disorder affecting copper metabolism, primarily linked to mutations in the ATP7B gene, showing a wide range of clinical symptoms among patients.
  • A study of 260 patients revealed that some common mutations, particularly p.Met645Arg and p.Gly869Arg, are underreported due to their milder symptoms, leading to a higher estimated prevalence than recorded (1:3,785, suggesting over 10,500 potential cases in Spain).
  • The findings indicate that individuals with the p.Met645Arg mutation often have fewer severe symptoms at diagnosis and are more likely to be diagnosed later in life, underscoring the need for increased awareness and early intervention.

Background: Recent advances in Computational Intelligence Tools and the escalating need for decision-making in the face of complex and uncertain phenomena like pandemics, climate change, and geopolitics necessitate understanding the interaction between these tools and human behavior. It is crucial to efficiently utilize the decision-makers cognitive resources in addressing specific problems.

Methods: The main goal of this present protocol is to describe the effect that CITs (Computational Intelligence Tools) have on decisions made during complex and uncertain situations.

Introduction: This article presents a systematic literature review that follows the PRISMA and PICOS guidelines to analyze current research trends on cognition, integrative complexity (IC) (a cognitive feature focusing on information processing in a person's response rather than its quantity or quality), and decision-making from the perspectives of activity theory and neuroscience.

Methods: The study examines 31 papers published between 2012 and 2022 and 19 articles specifically related to neuroscience. We performed a content analysis using six categories within activity theory: subjects, objects, rules, community, division of labor, and outcomes.
