Human behavior is more strongly driven by the motivation to avoid losses than pursue gains (loss aversion). However, there little research on how influence exert effort. We compared effects of loss and gain incentives cognitive task performance effort-based decision making. In three experiments, participants performed a cognitively effortful under conditions made choices about effort expenditure in decision-making task. Results consistently showed significant aversion Participants were...
Many people go to bed later than intended, yet very little is known about how bedtime plans are formed and followed. This study aimed characterize planning, procrastination, their relationship with objective sleep behavior among university students.

Abstract The motivation to avoid losses is often considered a strong drive of human behavior, affecting decisions in the context risk, temporal delay, and effort provision. However, studies measuring cognitive performance under loss gain incentives have yielded mixed findings. In recent study, we found evidence that motivated better working memory than gains. Since these results deviated from previous studies, decided perform preregistered, high‐powered, replication, extension study....
