As the global population ages, older decision makers will be required to take greater responsibility for their own physical, psychological and financial well-being. With this in mind, researchers have begun to examine the effects of ageing on decision making and associated neural circuits. A new 'affect-integration-motivation' (AIM) framework may help to clarify how affective and motivational circuits support decision making. Recent research has shed light on whether and how ageing influences these circuits, providing an interdisciplinary account of how ageing can alter decision making.
随着全球人口老龄化,老年决策者将需要对自己的身体、心理和财务状况承担更大的责任。考虑到这一点,研究人员已经开始研究衰老对决策及相关神经回路的影响。一个新的“情感-整合-动机”(AIM)框架可能有助于阐明情感和动机回路如何支持决策。最近的研究揭示了衰老是否以及如何影响这些回路,提供了一个关于衰老如何改变决策的跨学科解释。
