  • The neuroeconomic game, the Ultimatum Game, is an effective tool for understanding how social decision-making is influenced by emotions in both research and clinical settings. Previous findings have shown that playing the Ultimatum Game evokes negative emotions, especially anger and aggression. In a sample of non-clinical adults (N = 143) we evaluated the sensitivity of the Ultimatum Game to individual differences in anger and its related construct irritability. Results indicated the Ultimatum Game provides a promising platform for studying individual differences in trait anger and anger expression. However, the relationship between irritability and decision-making in the UG is less straight forward and needs to be further investigated. The current findings suggest that irritability, compared with anger, is less strongly associated with aggressive behavior. Therefore, when studying the behavioral responses of irritability, it would be beneficial to capture other behaviors beyond aggressive responses.
