El Laboratorio de Neurociencia es un grupo interdisciplinario integrado por físicos, psicólogos, biólogos, ingenieros, científicos de la educación, biotecnólogos, lingüistas, matemáticos, artistas y científicos de la computación.

El grupo tiene amplios intereses en neurociencia y psicología experimental y ha desarrollado numerosas interacciones con representantes de distintos dominios de la cultura humana, incluyendo músicos, jugadores de ajedrez profesionales, docentes de escuelas primarias, matemáticos, magos, artistas visuales y chefs.

Una motivación compartida del grupo es incorporar progresivamente más aspectos fenomenológicos de la mente a terrenos cuantitativos, intentando ser agnósticos e innovativos en las metodologías y frecuentemente fusionando ideas conocidas en combinaciones novedosas.

  • The Open Anchoring Quest Dataset: Anchored Estimates from 96 Studies on Anchoring Effects 

    Navajas, Joaquin; Röseler, Lukas; Weber, Lucia; et. al (Journal of Open Psychology DataUbiquity Press, 2022)
    People’s estimates are biased toward previously considered numbers (anchoring). We have aggregated all available data from anchoring studies that included at least two anchors into one large dataset. Data were standardized ...
  • Diversity of opinions promotes herding in uncertain crowds 

    Navajas, Joaquin; Armand, Oriane; Moran, Rani; Bahrami, Bahador; Deroy, Ophelia (Royal Society Open Science, 2022)
    Classic and recent studies demonstrate how we fall for the ‘tyranny of the majority' and conform to the dominant trend when uncertain. However, in many social interactions outside of the laboratory, there is rarely a clearly ...
  • Working Memory for Spatial Sequences: Developmental and Evolutionary Factors in Encoding Ordinal and Relational Structures 

    Sigman, Mariano; He Shang; Yanfen Zhen; Shijing Yu; Tenghai Long; Bingqian Zhang; Xinjian Jiang; Junru Li; Wen Fang; Dehane, Stanislas; Liping Wang (Journal of Neuroscience, 2022)
    Sequence learning is a ubiquitous facet of human and animal cognition. Here, using a common sequence reproduction task, we investigated whether and how the ordinal and relational structures linking consecutive elements ...
  • Chronotype at the beginning of secondary school and school timing are both associated with chronotype development during adolescence 

    Goldín, Andrea Paula; Sigman, Mariano; Rodríguez Ferrante, Guadalupe; Leone, María Juliana (Scientific Reports, 2022)
    The misalignment between late chronotypes and early school start times affect health, performance and psychological well-being of adolescents. Here we test whether, and how, the baseline chronotype (i.e. chronotype at the ...
  • Imagetic and affective measures of memory reverberation diverge at sleep onset in association with theta rhythm 

    Sigman, Mariano; Bezerra Mota, Natália; Soares, Ernesto; Altszyler, Edgar; Sánchez-Gendriz, Ignacio; Muto, Vincenzo; Heib, Dominik; Slezak, Diego F.; Copelli, Mauro; Schabus, Manuel; Ribeiro, Sidarta (Elsevier Inc, 2022)
    The ‘day residue’ - the presence of waking memories into dreams - is a century-old concept that remains controver- sial in neuroscience. Even at the psychological level, it remains unclear how waking imagery cedes into ...
  • The globalizability of temporal discounting 

    Navajas, Joaquin; Freiras, Lucía; et al. (Nature Human Behaviour, 2022)
    Economic inequality is associated with preferences for smaller, immediate gains over larger, delayed ones. Such temporal discounting may feed into rising global inequality, yet it is unclear whether it is a function of ...
  • Peer tutoring of computer programming increases exploratory behavior in children 

    de la Hera, Diego P.; Zanoni, María B.; Sigman, Mariano; Calero, Cecilia (Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2022)
    There is growing interest in teaching computer science and programming skills in schools. Here we investigated the efficacy of peer tutoring, which is known to be a useful educational resource in other domains but never ...
