Imagining the truth and the moon: an electrophysiological study of abstract and concrete word processing.

abstract：:Both pay out for all the trials (pay-all) and pay out for only one randomly selected trial (pay-one), are widely used in economics experiments to elicit choices from study participants. However, whether pay-all and pay-one payments modulate risk-taking and decision-making in the same manner remains controversial. In t...
