Foraging is a fundamental behavior, and many types of animals appear to have solved
foraging problems using a shared set of mechanisms. Perhaps the most common foraging …

In this article, we conduct a systematic review of the emerging literature on the biological
perspective in management and investigate research spanning the areas of genetics …

This paper studies the cognitive processes that enable decision makers to switch between
exploitation and exploration. We use functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in a …

Involvement of dopamine in regulating exploration during decision-making has long been
hypothesized, but direct causal evidence in humans is still lacking. Here, we use a …

Changes in cognition, affect, and brain function combine to promote a shift in the nature of
mentation in older adulthood, favoring exploitation of prior knowledge over exploratory …

There is growing interest in exploring the potential links between human biology and
management and organization studies, which is bringing greater attention to bear on the …

Analyses of corpus-based indices of conversational code-switching in bilingual speakers
predict the occurrence of intra-sentential code-switches consistent with the joint activation of …

Thoughts and actions are often driven by a decision to either explore new avenues with
unknown outcomes, or to exploit known options with predictable outcomes. Yet, the neural …

Optimal behavior requires striking a balance between exploiting tried-and-true options or
exploring new possibilities. Neuroimaging studies have identified different brain regions in …

Neuroeconomics is providing insights into the neural bases of decision-making in normal
and pathological conditions. In the neuropsychiatric domain, this discipline investigates how …
