Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Vladan Rankov"
- Vladan Rankov's research primarily focuses on the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying decision-making processes, particularly in the context of psychological disorders such as obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and risky behaviors associated with rewards.
- His studies reveal that individuals with OCD may exhibit enhanced evidence accumulation during decision-making tasks, indicating a distinct processing pattern compared to healthy individuals, which may contribute to compulsive behaviors.
- Additionally, Rankov's work examines the neural correlates of risk-taking behaviors in relation to drug and food rewards, uncovering patterns of probability weighting that inform our understanding of pathological decision-making across different reward types.
