​S.A.M.B.A. :
​S
ystems Approach to Maladaptive Behaviour & Antisociality
​

Welcome! Here you can find information about Dr. Inti Brazil's scientific work. His main interest is studying (mal)adaptive behavior and decision-making and their link to psychopathic/antisocial tendencies in community and offender samples. To achieve this, he examines and tries to integrate multiple levels of description by combining behavioral methods, electrophysiology, s/fMRI, and computational modeling. His current projects and collaborations are primarily focused on:

  • how personality constructs are related to cognitive control, affective processing and social decision-making
  • reinforcement-based learning and decision-making in different types of offender populations
  • how staff characteristics relate to offender characteristics
  • how pain distorts decision-making as a function of psychopathic traits
  • studying the mechanism driving errorless learning 
  • how hostility biases are acquired
  • ethical and philosophical examinations of the use of neuroscientific methods to tackle clinical challenges in forensic settings
