ABSTRACT

Decision-making in complex environments is a multifaceted process that involves numerous neural mechanisms and cognitive strategies. This paper explores the various neural systems and circuits involved in decision-making, focusing on how sensory information is encoded, processed, and integrated to guide behavior. It delves into the role of the prefrontal cortex, the influence of risk and uncertainty, and the impact of complex, dynamic environments on decision-making processes. The study also examines real-world applications, highlighting how insights from neuroscience can inform strategies in fields ranging from artificial intelligence to behavioral economics.

Keywords: Decision-making, Neuroscience, Complex environments, Prefrontal cortex, Sensory processing.
