Jinhee Kim, a research professor in the LSD Lab at Korea University, has been awarded an Individual Basic Research Project to support an independent research study on social decision-making associated with interoception.
This project aims to investigate the neural mechanisms of social decision-making through an integrated brain–body interaction framework. By combining multimodal neuroimaging and physiological measurements, the study examines how interoceptive sensitivity grounded in brain–body dynamics shapes social decision-making processes.
Using machine learning–based integrative analyses, the project seeks to identify individual-specific neural and physiological markers associated with social cognitive behavior. Furthermore, causal modeling approaches will be applied to elucidate predictive factors underlying social decision-making variability. Based on these findings, the project aims to develop predictive models of social cognitive behavior and explore potential technological approaches for enhancing social cognition.
