About This Event
Event Description:
The activity aims to understand what is optimism and what are the neurological bases that favor thinking in order to imagine that situations will always have, or in most cases, a positive outcome. Thus, evaluations about the relevance of understanding the adaptive role of optimism and in which scenarios it would be bad come into play.
