In this dissertation I study choice contexts of learning under ambiguity. Experiential learning takes place by making choices, observing the outcomes, and altering future choices accordingly. Over time, such learning is expected to improve choices and outcomes but only when decision makers can classify outcomes as either successes or failures. This dichotomous outcome has clear behavioral...

Patients with supernumerary phantom limb report experiencing an additional limb duplicating its physical counterpart, usually following a stroke with sensorimotor disturbances. Here, we report a short-lasting case of a right upper supernumerary phantom limb with unusual visuomotor features in a healthy participant during a pure Jacksonian motor seizure unexpectedly induced by continuous...

The Swiss pension scheme is based on three pillars; the first one aims to cover the vital needs, the second one to secure the standard of living of the pensioner and the last one is an individual retirement savings (voluntary). In theory, a retiree benefiting from a full pension of the first pillar and second pillar, should not need supplementary benefits (State’s help), at least until that he...
