  • The brain in business: neuromarketing and organisational Cognitive Neuroscience
    Der Markt, 2010
    Co-Authors: Nick Lee, Michael J.r. Butler, Carl Senior
    Abstract:

    The application of Cognitive neuroscientific techniques to understanding social behaviour has resulted in many discoveries. Yet advocates of the ‘social Cognitive Neuroscience’ approach maintain that it suffers from a number of limitations. The most notable of these is its distance from any form of real-world applicabity. One solution to this limitation is ‘Organisational Cognitive Neuroscience’—the study of the Cognitive Neuroscience of human behaviour in, and in response to, organizations, which are arguably our most natural contemporary ecology. Here we provide a brief overview of this approach, a definition and also some examples of questions that the approach would be best suited to address. Furthemore, we consider neuromarketing as a subfield of organizational Cognitive Neuroscience, arguing that such a relationship clarifies the role of scholarly marketing research in the area, and provides a welcome emphasis on theoretical rigour.

  • The Brain in Business: The Case for Organisational Cognitive Neuroscience?
    Nature Precedings, 2008
    Co-Authors: Nick Lee, Michael Butler, Carl Senior
    Abstract:

    The application of Cognitive neuroscientific techniques to understanding social behaviour has resulted in many discoveries. Yet advocates of the ‘social Cognitive Neuroscience’ approach maintain that it suffers from a number of limitations. The most notable of these is its distance from any form of real-world applicability. One solution to this limitation is ‘Organisational Cognitive Neuroscience’ – the study of the Cognitive Neuroscience of human behaviour in, and in response to, organizations. Given that all of us will spend most of our lives in some sort of work related organisation, organisational Cognitive Neuroscience allows us to examine the Cognitive underpinnings of social behaviour that occurs in what may be our most natural ecology. Here we provide a brief overview of this approach, a definition and also some possible questions that the new approach would be best suited to address.

  • The social Cognitive Neuroscience of organisations
    2007
    Co-Authors: Carl Senior, Michael J.r. Butler
    Abstract:

    Social Cognitive Neuroscience is an emerging branch of Cognitive Neuroscience that bridges together social psychology and Neuroscience. At its core is an understanding of the relationship between the brain and social interaction. The social Cognitive neuroscientist places empirical endeavor within a three–stage framework, and questions falling under the SCN rubric undergo interrogation at each of these three levels. Firstly, we seek to understand a Neuroscience of social interactions at the social level. Here we need to understand the motivational and other social factors that drive our behavior and experience in the real world. It goes without saying that any study of the Cognitive Neuroscience of socially interactive behavior must first be informed by social psychological theory to maintain ecological validity. Second, the social Cognitive neuroscientist must be an adroit Cognitive psychologist and be able to examine interactive behavior from the Cognitive level. It is here that information–processing models and theories are applied to the understanding of our social behavior. Finally, studies at the neural level seek to inform us about the cortical structures, as well as the way they interact with other, in the mediation of the previous Cognitive level. This volume brings together contributions from leading thinkers in both the social Cognitive Neurosciences and business to provide a comprehensive introduction and overview of a social Cognitive Neuroscience of the business brain.

  • Toward an organizational Cognitive Neuroscience.
    Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2007
    Co-Authors: Michael J.r. Butler, Carl Senior
    Abstract:

    The research strategy adopted in this article is to connect two different discourses and the ideas, methods, and outputs they contain—these being Cognitive Neuroscience and organization theory. The main contribution of the article is to present an agenda for the field of organizational Cognitive Neuroscience. We define what is meant by the term, outline its background, identify why it is important as a new research direction, and then conclude by drawing on Damasio's levels of life regulation as a framework to bind together existing organizational Cognitive Neuroscience. The article begins by setting the wider debate behind the emergence of organizational Cognitive Neuroscience by revisiting the nature–nurture debate and uses Pinker to demonstrate that the connection between mind and matter has not been resolved, that new directions are opening up to better understand human nature, and that organizational Cognitive Neuroscience is one fruitful path forward.

  • Research Possibilities for Organizational Cognitive Neuroscience
    Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2007
    Co-Authors: Michael J.r. Butler, Carl Senior
    Abstract:

    In this article, we identify research possibilities for organizational Cognitive Neuroscience that emerge from the papers in this special issue. We emphasize the intriguing finding that the papers share a common theme-the use of Cognitive Neuroscience to investigate the role of emotions in organizational behavior; this suggests a research agenda in its own right. We conclude the article by stressing that there is much yet to discover about how the mind works, especially in organizational settings.

  • Social Cognitive Neuroscience: A Review of Core Processes
    Annual Review of Psychology, 2007
    Co-Authors: Matthew D Lieberman
    Abstract:

    Social Cognitive Neuroscience examines social phenomena and processes using Cognitive Neuroscience research tools such as neuroimaging and neuropsychology. This review examines four broad areas of research within social Cognitive Neuroscience: (a) understanding others, (b) understanding oneself, (c) controlling oneself, and (d) the processes that occur at the interface of self and others. In addition, this review highlights two core-processing distinctions that can be neuroCognitively identified across all of these domains. The distinction between automatic versus controlled processes has long been important to social psychological theory and can be dissociated in the neural regions contributing to social cognition. Alternatively, the differentiation between internally-focused processes that focus on one's own or another's mental interior and externally-focused processes that focus on one's own or another's visible features and actions is a new distinction. This latter distinction emerges from social Cognitive Neuroscience investigations rather than from existing psychological theories demonstrating that social Cognitive Neuroscience can both draw on and contribute to social psychological theory.

  • The emergence of social Cognitive Neuroscience.
    The American psychologist, 2001
    Co-Authors: Kevin N. Ochsner, Matthew D Lieberman
    Abstract:

    Social Cognitive Neuroscience is an emerging interdisciplinary field of research that seeks to understand phenomena in terms of interactions between 3 levels of analysis: the social level, which is concerned with the motivational and social factors that influence behavior and experience; the Cognitive level, which is concerned with the information-processing mechanisms that give rise to social-level phenomena; and the neural level, which is concerned with the brain mechanisms that instantiate Cognitive-level processes. The social Cognitive Neuroscience approach entails conducting studies and constructing theories that make reference to all 3 levels and contrasts with traditional social psychological and Cognitive neuroscientific research that primarily makes reference to 2 levels. The authors present an introduction to and analysis of the field by reviewing current research and providing guidelines and suggested directions for future work.

  • infusing Cognitive Neuroscience into the clinical neuropsychology of memory
    Current opinion in behavioral sciences, 2020
    Co-Authors: Mary Pat Mcandrews, Melanie Cohn, David Gold
    Abstract:

    The Cognitive Neuroscience of episodic memory originated with patient studies, including the transformational research with HM following bilateral temporal lobe excision for epilepsy. While functional imaging studies have become prominent in neuroCognitive research on memory, important insights into aspects of memory representation and processes have been established, further articulated, and corroborated by studies with patients. Translation of these theoretical insights back into the clinic is limited, but neuropsychology has begun to capitalize on findings from Cognitive paradigms that better specify memory processes and underlying neural networks to enhance diagnosis, prognosis, and validation of therapeutic strategies. This review highlights some of these contributions, focussing on three neurological disorders to encourage further seamless integration of clinical and Cognitive Neuroscience research.
