Abstract: Our decisions are rarely made in isolated contexts. Rather, we make choices within complex environments that involve other people and evoke varied emotional states. As our world is becoming increasingly interconnected, it is critical to better understand how choice is shaped by emotion and social factors. This section explores myriad mechanisms through which choice is influenced by affect, feedback from others, and interpersonal relationship dynamics. By integrating insights from neuroscience, psychology, behavioral economics and computational modeling, the chapters here consider the complex ways in which emotion and social context influence how we value choice options, exert and desire agency, and develop preferences.
