- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) awarded a $529,508 Project Grant to the University of California, Berkeley to investigate the cognitive mechanisms that enable individuals to leverage the brain's motivation system for arbitrary goals. The 3-year research project, starting on June 1, 2024, aims to uncover how learning and decision-making differ when people pursue familiar, objective rewards versus novel, self-imposed...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) awarded Northeastern University $532,152 on May 1, 2025 to conduct research on the neurocognitive development of learning in adolescents. The project aims to investigate the cognitive and brain mechanisms related to learning from experience, and how these change from childhood to adolescence and young adulthood. Using behavioral, computational, and neuroimaging...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $138,000 Project Grant to support research titled "The Social Brain: Behavioral, Neural, and Transcriptomic Modulation of the Brain" from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2023. This funding was provided under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to promote progress in the biological sciences and increase understanding of major issues facing the nation.

- This National Science Foundation Project Grant award, provided through the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, supports a postdoctoral fellowship for an early-career scientist to study human decision-making, learning, and innovation in novel systems of rules and reward. The $160,000 award, spanning January 1, 2026 to December 31, 2027, will be used to conduct large-scale behavioral studies, including human-human gameplay experiments, to empirically validate a...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, awarded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, supports research on the cultural contexts and developmental outcomes of childhood exploration and interactions with nature. The $142,165 award, effective September 1, 2024 through August 31, 2026, will examine children's independent exploration and time spent in different environments (e.g., green spaces versus playgrounds) across two societies where such...
- This $212,791 federal Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program. The grant supports research aimed at understanding the incentives and constraints that influence scientists' willingness to pursue high-risk, high-return research projects. The researchers will develop and analyze mathematical models to examine how scientific norms, publication practices, and other factors impact scientists'...
- This $714,203 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will support research conducted by New York University (NYU) on how people change their planning behavior in response to uncertainty in their environment. The project aims to develop computational models of human planning under varying levels of randomness, including uncertainty in rewards, actions, and volatile environments. The research will analyze...
- This $260,390 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program. The project aims to examine how internet search affects cognitive style and self-directed learning, and to investigate interventions that encourage users to leverage their memory alongside digital tools. Key objectives include: 1) Assessing if internet search use alters cognitive style and influences learning on unrelated...
- This National Science Foundation project grant of $625,000 will fund research into the brain network mechanisms underlying task-general cognition and intelligent human behavior from September 2022 to August 2025. Under the federal Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), Rutgers University, Newark will investigate how dynamic activity flows within cognitive control networks implement intelligent goal-directed behavior across diverse tasks. Researchers will utilize brain...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) provides $750,000 to Brown University to develop and test a novel computational model of cognitive control in the human brain. The project aims to gain a deeper understanding of the neural computations underlying humans' flexible, goal-directed behavior, which has implications for understanding disorders of cognitive control and informing the design of...
