第72回心理学研究室セミナー
日時：2026年10月23日（金）午後5時から
場所：文学部3番大教室（国際学術総合研究棟1階）
【講師】
Professor Gregory Samanez-Larkin（Duke University）
【演題】
Motivating Wise Choices with an Aging Brain
【要旨】
Decline in the dopamine system over adulthood is one of the most well-documented losses in the neuroscience of aging. According to brain science, older adults should be unmotivated and make worse choices as they get older. According to behavioral science, the opposite is often true. After spending the last 20 years trying to figure out how any of this possibly makes sense, I’ll share some progress our lab has made using PET imaging (and to a lesser extent fMRI) to understand motivation in the aging brain. In recent years our lab has shifted away from neuroimaging to begin testing behavioral interventions in national health communication campaigns, classroom interventions, and collaborative research with financial services that, in part, leverage what we’ve learned from a decade or so of research on the psychology and neuroeconomics of aging.
