Abstract

Psychology Psychology, Multidisciplinary Social Sciences
In four samples of adults, individual income was negatively associated with a measure of prefrontal cortex dysfunction even after implementing controls for age, sex, and education. The small association was stronger for men than for women. These results provide support for a neuroeconomic approach to the study of microeconomic variables.
