Rationality and emotionality: serotonin transporter genotype influences reasoning bias.

Social cognitive and affective neuroscience - 1 Apr 2013

Stollstorff Melanie, Bean Stephanie E, Anderson Lindsay M, Devaney Joseph M, Vaidya Chandan J

Abstract excerpt

Reasoning often occurs under emotionally charged, opinion-laden circumstances. The belief-bias effect indexes the extent to which reasoning is based upon beliefs rather than logical structure. We examined whether emotional content increases this effect, particularly for adults genetically predisposed to be more emotionally reactive. SS/SL(G) carriers of the serotonin transporter genotype (5-HTTLPR) were less...
