    Cognitive reappraisal is one of the core treatment components of cognitive behavioral therapy and is the gold standard treatment for major depressive disorders. Accumulating evidence indicates that cognitive reappraisal could function as a protective factor of cognitive vulnerability to depression. However, the neural mechanism by which CR training reduces cognitive vulnerability to depression is unclear. There is ample evidence that the prefrontal–amygdala circuit is involved in CR. This study …Read more

    Co-evolution of behaviour and beliefs in social dilemmas: estimating material, social, cognitive and cultural determinants
    with Sergey Gavrilets, Denis Tverskoi, Nianyi Wang, Juan Ozaita, Boyu Zhang, Angel Sanchez, and Giulia Andrighetto
    Understanding and predicting human cooperative behaviour and belief dynamics remains a major challenge both from the scientific and practical perspectives. Because of the complexity and multiplicity of material, social and cognitive factors involved, both empirical and theoretical work tends to focus only on some snippets of the puzzle. Recently, a mathematical theory has been proposed that integrates material, social and cognitive aspects of behaviour and beliefs dynamics to explain how people …Read more

    When automated fact-checking meets argumentation: Unveiling fake news through argumentative evidence
    with Elena Cabrio and Serena Villata
    Argument and Computation 16 (3): 405-424. 2025.
    The need for automated fact-checking has become urgent with the rise of misleading content on social media. Recently, Fake News Classification (FNC) has evolved to incorporate justifications provided by fact-checkers to explain their decisions. In this work, we argue that an argumentative representation of fact-checkers’ justifications can improve the precision and explainability of FNC systems. To address this challenging task, we present LIARArg, a novel linguistic resource composed of 2,832 n…Read more

    The Wronged Master: G u Jiegang’s Search for the Real Y ang Zhu
    Dao: A Journal of Comparative Philosophy 24 (2): 331-350. 2025.
    In the 1920s, in the context of the New Culture movement, G u Jiegang 顧頡剛 (1893–1980) initiated the Chinese current of “Doubting Antiquity,” which aimed at a depolitization of ancient scholarship and a restoration of its historical value. During this process, Y ang Zhu 楊朱 (allegedly around 400 BCE) entered Gu’s discussion and became an integral part of Gu’s reconstruction of the Daoist tradition.

    with Ming Yuan, Xuekun Suo, Han Lin, Mingchuan Yu, and Wan Jiang
    Business Ethics, the Environment and Responsibility 35 (2): 636-654. 2026.
    The role of CEO affects in influencing corporate ESG performance is underexplored, despite the growing importance of ESG factors in modern business strategy. Previous literature suggests that CEO emotions can impact corporate decisions, but the specific relationship between CEO affects and ESG outcomes remains unclear. Using panel data from 35,078 firm-year observations spanning from 2010 to 2022, we examine the nonlinear relationship between CEO positive and negative affects and corporate ESG p…Read more

    From aesthetics to anthropology: ideal beauty in Camper’s (1722–1789) theory of race
    History and Philosophy of the Life Sciences 47 (1): 1-33. 2025.
    The problem of providing an objective characterization of human variation have been often intermingled with the questionable task of providing scientific grounds for racism. The source of this confusion lies in the misconception that Petrus Camper’s (1722–1789) theory of the facial line demonstrates the superiority of the Caucasian racial type. In this paper, we argue that the invention of the facial line, far from obeying Euro-centric aesthetic bias, grounded Camper’s neutrality with respect to…Read more

    Cognitive Connotations of Discourse Subjectivity from the Philosophic Perspective
    with Bingzhuan Peng
    Filosofija. Sociologija 36 (1). 2025.
    Discourse serves as a medium through which speakers (or writers) express their stance, affect and intentions, that is, subjectivity. Subjectivity in discourse is omnipresent, meaning that it manifests whenever discourse is generated. Nevertheless, current research lacks a thorough exploration of discourse subjectivity (DS) and its particular cognitive connotations. A framework for analysing the cognitive connotations of DS from the philosophic perspective was constructed to delve deeper into the…Read more

    This article examines the ethical implications of embryo selection (ES) and gene editing (GE) in reproductive medicine through the lens of Pummer's Person-Affecting View (PAV). I argue that even if the edited embryo is not numerically identical to the unedited one, GE may still be ethically preferable to ES in certain scenarios. PAV assesses the moral permissibility of an action based on the balance of requiring reasons against and permitting reasons for it, from the perspective of particular in…Read more

    From a historical materialist perspective, the evolution of U.S. trade control policies toward China has been driven by the pursuit of economic and geopolitical interests. However, beyond material considerations, these policies also intersect with deeper ethical, philosophical, and even theological questions regarding justice, sovereignty, and the moral dimensions of economic power. Trade restrictions, embargoes, and economic coercion raise profound issues of fairness, global responsibility, and…Read more
