“we investigated that using combination of modeling computational modeling we and we looked at people's behavior we did ey tracking because we're measuring where people attend your average person most people attend to what they might lose rather than what they might win and the longer they focus on what they might lose the more loss uh of they are and that tends to be associated with people who have like negative affects so if you're anxious or you're depressed you're in a negative State then you're you're looking more for what you could lose than what you could win”
