PROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT Many financial and social decisions made throughout life can powerfully influence health outcomes in old age. To address these issues, two multidisciplinary areas of life-span research have emerged in recent years: neuroeconomics and social neuroscience. Despite the promise of these areas, unfortunately it remains rare for individual institutions to provide truly multidisciplinary training opportunities in either neuroeconomics or social neuroscience. The proposed activities will address this by offering workshops and summer schools to a broad audience of junior scientists all over the country. The goal of neuroeconomics is to better understand human decision making. Neuroeconomics uses an economic approach to understanding decision behavior that can potentially be generalized not only for the maximization of financial well being but also mental and physical health. Social neuroscience integrates multiple areas of psychology and neuroscience to better understand human social behavior. The social neuroscience approach identifies ways to optimize social, emotional, and physical health and well being. The primary goal of the proposed training activities is to provide the attendees with a broad base of knowledge and skills from the many subfields within neuroeconomics and social neuroscience. Another goal of the proposed events is to begin to bring together the neuroeconomics and social neuroscience communities for an even more integrative approach. Social neuroscience and neuroeconomics have largely grown up as separate fields, with separate conferences and very little cross-talk between communities despite a great deal of overlap in research interests (e.g., neural mechanisms of affective and social decision making, learning and valuation). To better understand the predictors of and strategies for optimizing health and well being in old age, scientific life-span research will need to continue to further integrate approaches, evidence, and theories from multiple disciplines given the multi-dimensional contributions to long-term health and well being. We expect that the novel training activities proposed here will increase the number of future scientists effectively working at the intersection of multiple fields which will promote creativity, facilitate communication across areas, introduce novel applications of methods and approaches to other areas, and promote more creative science.

项目总结/摘要 一生中做出的许多财务和社会决策都能有力地影响老年人的健康状况。 为了解决这些问题，近年来出现了两个多学科领域的寿命研究： 神经经济学和社会神经科学。尽管这些领域有希望，但不幸的是， 个别机构提供真正的多学科培训机会，无论是神经经济学或社会 神经科学拟议的活动将通过向广大的非政府组织提供讲习班和暑期学校来解决这个问题。 全国各地的年轻科学家的观众。神经经济学的目标是更好地理解人类 决策。神经经济学使用经济学方法来理解决策行为， 潜在的推广不仅是为了最大限度地提高经济福利，而且是精神和身体 健康社会神经科学整合了心理学和神经科学的多个领域，以更好地了解 人类社会行为。社会神经科学方法确定了优化社会，情感和 身体健康和幸福。拟议培训活动的主要目标是为与会者提供 具有广泛的知识和技能基础，来自神经经济学和社会学领域的许多子领域。 神经科学拟议活动的另一个目标是开始将神经经济学和社会经济学结合在一起， 神经科学社区的一个更综合的方法。社会神经科学与神经经济学 它们在很大程度上是作为独立的领域发展起来的，有着独立的会议， 社区尽管在研究兴趣上有大量重叠（例如，情感的神经机制， 社会决策、学习和评价）。为了更好地了解预测因素和战略， 优化老年人的健康和福祉，科学的寿命研究将需要继续进一步 综合方法，证据，并从多个学科的理论，鉴于多维 对长期健康和福祉的贡献。我们希望，这里提出的新的培训活动将 增加未来科学家的数量，有效地在多个领域的交叉点工作， 促进创造力，促进跨领域的沟通，引入新的方法应用， 方法到其他领域，并促进更多的创造性科学。
