“…In addition to this, the MCQ is a validated monetary discounting measure that has been widely used to assess discounting in the laboratory (Frederick, Loewenstein, and O'Donoghue, 2002), not only in experimental economics but also in a wide range of fields in the cognitive science. In fact, the version that we used for our main experiment-that is the 27-item MCQ, is listed in the Cognitive Atlas, a collaborative project that aims to provide a knowledge base for cognitive science (Poldrack et al, 2011). As a result, we considered this tool as a valid method to investigate delay discounting, also in terms of reproducible research.…”

This paper experimentally investigates the framing effects of intertemporal choice using two different elicitation modes, termed classical and penal. In the classical mode, participants are given the choice between receiving a certain amount of money, smaller and sooner, today and a higher amount, larger and later, delayed (e.g., "€55 today vs. €75 in 61 days"). This is referred to as the standard mode. In the penalty mode, the participant must give up an explicit amount of money in order to choose the smaller and sooner option (e.g., "€75 in 61 days vs. €55 today with a penalty of €20"). This is the explicit mode. We find that estimates of individual discount rates are lower in the explicit mode than in the standard mode. This result suggests that even very simple information about the amount of money one must surrender for choosing the earlier option increases delayed consumption. The finding has relevant implications for self-control and long-term planning in intertemporal choice.

“…Whilst the function categories applied in this review are reasonable from a psychology perspective, they may not constitute the most appropriate means of defining and organising the processes involved in design. This may be seen to mirror current ontological debates in psychology and neuroscience research, where efforts are under way to develop a shared ontology of processes and relationships [71]. Several design researchers have proposed ontologies, e.g.…”

This paper reports the first systematic review and synthesis of protocol studies on conceptual design cognition. 47 studies from the domains of architectural design, engineering design, and product design engineering were reviewed towards answering the following question: What is our current understanding of the cognitive processes involved in conceptual design tasks carried out by individual designers? Studies were found to reflect three viewpoints on the cognitive nature of designing: design as search; design as exploration; and design activities. Synthesising the findings of individual studies revealed ten categories of executive and nonexecutive function studied across the viewpoints: visual perception; mental imagery; semantic association; long term memory; working memory; selective attention; creative thinking; evaluation and decision making; externalisation; and reasoning and problem solving. The review highlights several avenues for future research, centering on the need for general formalisms, more objective methods to supplement protocol analysis, and a shared ontology of cognitive processes.

“…MRI parameter attributes (parameters such as the echo time) were imported from the DICOM lexicon (Clunie, 2000). Currently, we use attributes in the experimental psychology classes to store labels from the cognitive atlas (Poldrack et al, 2011) or cognitive paradigm (Turner and Laird, 2012) ontologies, as those seemed too large to be imported fully in the classification.…”

BIOMIST: A Platform for Biomedical Data Lifecycle Management of Neuroimaging Cohorts

et al. 2017

The data management needs of the neuroimaging community are currently addressed by several specialized software platforms, which automate repetitive data import, archiving and processing tasks. The BIOMedical Imaging SemanTic data management (BIOMIST) project aims at creating such a framework, yet with a radically different approach: the key insight behind it is the realization that the data management needs of the neuroimaging community-organizing the secure and convenient storage of large amounts of large files, bringing together data from different scientific domains, managing workflows and access policies, ensuring traceability and sharing data across different labs-are actually strikingly similar to those already expressed by the manufacturing industry. The BIOMIST neuroimaging data management framework is built around the same systems as those that were designed in order to meet the requirements of the industry. Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) systems rely on an object-oriented data model and allow the traceability of data and workflows throughout the life of a product, from its design to its manufacturing, maintenance, and end of life, while guaranteeing data consistency and security. The BioMedical Imaging-Lifecycle Management data model was designed to handle the specificities of neuroimaging data in PLM systems, throughout the lifecycle of a scientific study. This data model is both flexible and scalable, thanks to the combination of generic objects and domain-specific classes sourced from publicly available ontologies. The data integrated management and processing method was then designed to handle workflows of processing chains in PLM. Following these principles, workflows are parameterized and launched from the PLM platform onto a computer cluster, and the results automatically return to the PLM where they are archived along with their provenance information. Third, to transform the PLM into a full-fledged neuroimaging framework, we developed a series of external modules: DICOM import, XML form data import web services, flexible graphical querying interface, and SQL export to spreadsheets. Overall, the BIOMIST platform is well suited for the management of neuroimaging cohorts, and it is currently used for the management of the BIL&GIN dataset (300 participants) and the ongoing magnetic resonance imaging-Share cohort acquisition of 2,000 participants.
