A groundbreaking book that illuminates the unexplored territory of cognitive behavioral neuroscience (CBN) in Human Resource Development and Management (HRDM). Positioned as a catalyst for change, this comprehensive guide serves as the linchpin connecting theoretical foundations with real-world applications.

In a world characterized by constant changes, organizations grapple with the complex task of understanding and enhancing human behavior within their ranks. The burgeoning interest in cognitive behavioral neuroscience (CBN) for unraveling the intricacies of organizational dynamics has paved the way for a groundbreaking shift. However, the application of CBN in Human Resource Development and Management (HRDM) remains in its infancy, creating a void between scientific inquiry and practical implementation. As organizations yearn for evidence-based strategies to enhance talent identification, team selection, training, and overall performance, a critical need emerges for a comprehensive guide that bridges this gap. Cognitive Behavioral Neuroscience in Organizational Settings is a groundbreaking book that illuminates the unexplored territory of CBN in HRDM. Positioned as a catalyst for change, this comprehensive guide serves as the linchpin connecting theoretical foundations with real-world applications. Seamlessly navigating through the basics of neuroscience, the anatomy and functions of the brain, and the role of neuroscience in organizational behavior, establishes the groundwork for a new academic discipline. By delving into higher cognitive processes, artificial intelligence integration, neuroscience methods, and CBN-based interventions, the book offers a roadmap to revolutionize how organizations understand, manage, and enhance their human capital.

The Neuroscience of Organizational Behavior establishes the scientific foundations of organizational neuroscience, a nascent discipline that explores the neural correlates of human behavior in organizations. The book draws from several disciplines including the organizational sciences, neuroeconomics, cognitive psychology, social cognitive neuroscience and neuroscience. The topics discussed include the neural foundations of organizational phenomena, such as decision-making, leadership, fairness, trust and cooperation, emotions, ethics and morality, unconscious bias and diversity in the workplace.

In a very understandable, practical, and accessible manner, this book applies recent groundbreaking findings from behavioral neuroscience to the most complex and vexing challenges in organizations today. In particular, it addresses managing large-scale organizational changes, such as mergers and acquisitions, providing lessons and tactics that can be usefully applied to in many different settings. In addition to discussing successful practices, it also identifies the reasons that most past comprehensive, long-term change projects have failed and unmasks the counterproductive effects of the typical evolutionary or emotion-based attempts to change group and individual behavior, using neuroscience as its principal tool.

This volume aims to introduce organizational researchers and practitioners to the role of neuroscience in building theory, research methodologies and practical applications. The volume introduces the field of organizational neuroscience and explores its influence on topics such as leadership, ethics and moral reasoning.

Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is an invaluable functional brain imaging technique that provides direct, real-time monitoring of neuronal activity necessary for gaining insight into dynamic cortical networks. Our intentions with this book are to cover the richness and transdisciplinary nature of the MEG field, make it more accessible to newcomers and experienced researchers and to stimulate growth in the MEG area. The book presents a comprehensive overview of MEG basics and the latest developments in methodological, empirical and clinical research, directed toward master and doctoral students, as well as researchers. There are three levels of contributions: 1) tutorials on instrumentation, measurements, modeling, and experimental design; 2) topical reviews providing extensive coverage of relevant research topics; and 3) short contributions on open, challenging issues, future developments and novel applications. The topics range from neuromagnetic measurements, signal processing and source localization techniques to dynamic functional networks underlying perception and cognition in both health and disease. Topical reviews cover, among others: development on SQUID-based and novel sensors, multi-modal integration (low field MRI and MEG; EEG and fMRI), Bayesian approaches to multi-modal integration, direct neuronal imaging, novel noise reduction methods, source-space functional analysis, decoding of brain states, dynamic brain connectivity, sensory-motor integration, MEG studies on perception and cognition, thalamocortical oscillations, fetal and neonatal MEG, pediatric MEG studies, cognitive development, clinical applications of MEG in epilepsy, pre-surgical mapping, stroke, schizophrenia, stuttering, traumatic brain injury, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, autism, aging and neurodegeneration, MEG applications in cognitive neuropharmacology and an overview of the major open-source analysis tools.

"Neurobiology of Cognition and Behavior" is a cognitive neuroscience that maps cognitive/behavioral units with anatomical regions in the human brain. The brain-behavioral associations are based on functional neuroimaging combined with lesion studies. The findings will be used to explain differences in clinical syndromes with videos of patients included.
