January 26, 2018 at 3:06 PM Some days, it feels like nothing goes your way. Others, the sun is always shining.
Neuroscientist Moran Cerf has been studying decision-making for over a decade, and his research has shown him that far more people are in the second camp of people than the first.
Along the way, he's developed a tested method that helps him appreciate all the times he is lucky.
Here's how he does it.

November 20, 2017 at 11:00 AM A new study finds one Facebook like is all it takes for advertisers to tailor ads to your psychological profile.
Targeting ads this way resulted in a 40% jump in clicks and 50% jump in purchases.
The findings could be used for unethical purposes, but they could also help people live better lives, the lead author said.
Personalizing Facebook ads based on a user's psychological profiles — not just their demographic traits, such as age or gender — can significantly increase the chance they'll c...

November 13, 2017 at 12:58 PM Personal finance has always been a struggle for me, and it's led to poor confidence that I could afford even small purchases.
One conversation with a neuroscientist about how humans make decisions turned that all around.
Creating a budget that standardizes my spending into a weekly chunk now has me feeling more confident than ever.
After years of feeling like my finances controlled me, and not the other way around, I'm happy to report I have found the solution in the wisdom of a neuroscienti... Tags: Trends, Northwestern University, Cerf, Moran Cerf78 people like this. Like
November 8, 2017 at 2:27 PM Making choices is hard. That would be why researcher Moran Cerf has eliminated it from his life. As a rule, he always chooses the second menu item at a restaurant. Tags: Science, Moran Cerf60 people like this. Like

October 1, 2017 at 11:30 AM Neuroscientist Moran Cerf has made a living studying how people make choices.
Turns out, humans are pretty lousy decision-makers. We fall victim to bias, let emotions cloud our judgment, and tire of making choices pretty quickly.
But Cerf has also learned that making a handful of really smart choices at the right moment can eliminate the need to make hundreds of smaller, nagging choices.

July 31, 2017 at 11:54 AM If you want to be a lucky person, it helps to know what luck looks like.
According to Northwestern University neuroscientist Moran Cerf, the way to become a luckier person is to keep a running list of times luck was (and was not) on your side. More often than not, Cerf has found, the times you got lucky will outnumber the unlucky moments.
Cerf has studied decision-making for over a decade, and he's learned, among other things, that free choice is a terrible predictor for happiness. Humans fall v... Tags: Trends, Northwestern University, Cerf, Moran Cerf86 people like this. Like
July 28, 2017 at 12:12 PM According to Moran Cerf, a neuroscientist at Northwestern University who has been studying decision-making for over a decade, the surest way to maximize happiness has nothing to do with experiences, material goods, or personal philosophy.
It's all about who you decide to spend time with. But "it's not just advice to choose your friends carefully," Cerf told Business Insider.

July 28, 2017 at 9:22 AM Moran Cerf is the opposite of a picky eater.
For the past year, whenever the Northwestern University neuroscientist has gone out to eat, he's automatically selected the second menu item on the list of specials, no matter what it is.
"Sometimes it's a big failure, but sometimes it's also a big failure when I choose myself," he said.
Cerf researches decision-making — specifically, how the brain works in the moments right before a decision is executed. His work has given him an understanding of ho... Tags: Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, Trends, Harvard, Northwestern University, Cerf, Moran Cerf51 people like this. Like
