Abstract
Social Sciences Reviewed: The social sciences focus on multibody problems within changing environments, where the intentions and actions of both actor and acted-upon vary over time. In such situations, it can be challenging, to say the least, to identify unambiguously and persuasively which behaviors are causes, which are effects, and which are epiphenomena. Behrens et al. (p. 1160 ) review the recent application of formal behavioral models in the area of social cognitive neuroscience.Keywords
