The Link Between Mental Health and Decision-Making Efficiency In Neuroeconomics

Abstract

This article examines the link between mental health and the basic concepts of neuroeconomics, which studies the decision-making process when choosing alternative options, allocating risk and reward allocation. Based on the interpretation of mental health as a state of well-being in which the individual realizes their own abilities, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to their community, the authors attempt to link different personality states with making reasonable or un reasonable, effective or ineffective economic and financial decisions. It is proposed to consider mental health as a continuum that includes: mental health, reaction, injured, and mental illness.
