“…Concerning autonomic measures, it was estimated that high levels of skin conductance level and heart rate would be found, especially in the different sorting tasks. High levels of these autonomic indices, in agreement with the literature, can be interpreted as cues of stress and emotional engagement [33,39], which may result from both the difficulty of having a clear representation of the different variables of priority, efficacy, and time attributable by the different goals as well as from awareness with respect to the need to complete the SAGT in the shortest RT.…”

A goal’s self-awareness and the planning to achieve it drive decision makers. Through a neuroscientific approach, this study explores the self-awareness of goals by analyzing the explicit and implicit processes linked to the ability to self-represent goals and sort them via an implicit dominant key. Thirty-five professionals performed a novel and ecological decision-making task, the Self-Awareness of Goals Task (SAGT), aimed at exploring the (i) self-representation of the decision-making goals of a typical working day; (ii) self-representation of how these goals were performed in order of priority; (iii) temporal sequence; and (iv) in terms of their efficacy. Electrophysiological (i.e., alpha, beta, and gamma band), autonomic, behavioral, and self-report data (General Decision Making Style and Big Five Inventory) are collected. Higher self-awareness of goals by time as well as efficacy and the greater activation of alpha, beta, and gamma bands in the temporoparietal brain area were found. Correlations reported positive associations between the self-awareness of goals via a time and dependent decision-making style and a conscientious personality, but also between the self-awareness of goals via an efficacy and rational decision-making style. The results obtained in this study suggest that the SAGT could activate recursive thinking in the examinee and grasp individual differences in self-representation and aware identification of decision-making goals.

“…Furthermore, hyperscanning paradigms are now able to obtain data on actions and social adaptation during human-to-human interaction (Balconi et al, 2019a , b ; Balconi and Fronda, 2020b ). If portability will be increased, co-bots could receive precious information about multiple and complex work–environment settings with multiple agents.…”

“…They concluded that moral decision‐making consists of complex processes requiring leaders to evaluate the potential personal and social consequences of the decision to be made. In addition, innovative neuroscientific methods and paradigms that allow for study of two‐persons in interaction (“hyperscanning”) enabled researchers to underline the potential significant modulations of neurophysiological correlates in response to social challenges for different types of leadership styles (Balconi et al, 2019; Balconi, Venturella, Fronda, & Vanutelli, 2019).…”
