History:
The BIAL Foundation was created in 1994 by Laboratórios BIAL in conjunction with the Council of Rectors of Portuguese Universities. BIAL’s Foundation mission is to foster the scientific study of Man from both the physical and spiritual perspectives.
Along the years the BIAL Foundation has developed an important relationship with the scientific community, first in Portugal and after worldwide. Today it is an institution of reference which aims to stimulate new researches that may help people, promote more health and contribute to new milestones to gain access to knowledge.
Among its activities the BIAL Foundation manages the BIAL Award, created in 1984, one of the most important awards in the Health field in Europe. The BIAL Award rewards both the basic and the clinical research distinguishing works of major impact in medical research.
The BIAL Foundation also assigns Scientific Research Scholarships for the study of neurophysiological and mental health in people, arousing the interest of researchers in the areas of Psychophysiology and Parapsychology.
To date the BIAL Foundation has supported 461 projects, more than 1000 researchers, with research groups in twenty-seven countries, resulting, until April 2013, in about 600 full papers, out of which 172 published in indexed international journals with an average impact factor of 3.6 and a substantial number of citations (1665).
Since 1996 the BIAL Foundation organizes the Symposia entitled "Behind and Beyond the Brain", a Forum that gathers well renowned neurosciences speakers and the BIAL Foundation Fellows which are spread around the world.
Classified as an institution of public utility, the BIAL Foundation includes among its patrons the Portuguese President, the Portuguese Universities Rectors' Council and the Portuguese Medical Association.

Probing pro-environmental behaviour: A systematic review on its relationship with executive functions and self-regulation processes
Publication year: 2023

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Given the role of self-regulation and executive functions in enabling goal pursuit and top-down regulation of behaviour, it is plausible to assume that these factors would affect individuals’ ability to act upon their environmental concerns, hence contributing to explain individual differences in the performance of pro-environmental behaviour. This article examines the heterogeneous literature investigating the relationship of self-regulation processes (i.e., goal setting, monitoring and goal striving) and of executive functions (i.e., working memory, inhibitory control, and cognitive flexibility) with pro-environmental behaviour, with the aim of providing an extensive and unifying overview of this topic of research. We conducted a systematic literature review using the PRISMA protocol, searching three databases (Scopus, PubMed and PsycInfo). We included as records empirical studies on healthy adult participants, with no restrictions for the methodology, published in English in peer-reviewed journals. We excluded discussion, opinion, and review articles, as well as studies referring to human behaviours unrelated to environmental conservation, or referring to subjects other than individuals (e.g., households or organisations). After applying these criteria, 31 records with 41 individual studies with low estimated probability of bias were identified and included in the review. The reviewed literature suggests that greater top-down regulation is associated with increased engagement in pro-environmental behaviour. Yet, evidence is uneven for each self-regulation component and less robust for executive functions. Accordingly, we call for more research to be carried out to clarify the link between executive functions and self-regulation with respect to pro-environmental engagement, and to assess their intermingled contribution in reducing the environmental attitude-behaviour gap.

The pattern theory of compassion
Publication year: 2024

https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tics.2024.04.005
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Concepts of empathy, sympathy and compassion are often confused in a variety of literatures. This article proposes a pattern-theoretic approach to distinguishing compassion from empathy and sympathy. Drawing on psychology, Western philosophy, affective neuroscience, and contemplative science, we clarify the nature of compassion as a specific pattern of dynamically related factors that include physiological, cognitive, and affective processes, relational/intersubjective processes, and motivational/action tendencies. We also show that the dynamic nature of the compassion pattern is reflected in neuroscientific findings, as well as in compassion practice. The pattern theory of compassion allows us to make several clear distinctions between compassion, empathy, and sympathy.

Pattern theory of selflessness: How meditation may transform the self-pattern
Publication year: 2024
URL:
https://doi.org/10.1007/s12671-024-02418-2
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
For many centuries, scholars and philosophers from wisdom traditions in different cultures have reported and discussed non-self states of consciousness. These states can be both short-term (state, transitory) and long-term (trait, lasting) conditions. However, in psychology, the importance of a healthy self is usually emphasized, and some theorists have dismissed the idea of "selfless" modes of functioning. This disagreement hinders further empirical progress in the study of self and the way it might be affected by meditation. This paper addresses this issue by providing an interdisciplinary conceptual discussion, grounded in the pattern theory of self (PTS). According to PTS, what we call "self" is a complex pattern of dynamically related constituent processes, which include embodied, experiential (prereflective), affective, psychological/cognitive, reflective, narrative, intersubjective, ecological, and normative processes. We propose that Buddhist and secular meditative practices induce a reorganization of the self-pattern, allowing individuals to experience a "selfless" state, both temporarily and persistently. We then put forward a heuristic model, the pattern theory of selflessness (PTSL), possibly experienced through meditation practices. The proposed PTSL model consists of six transformations that contribute to self-pattern reorganization in a nonlinear and iterative manner: consolidating and integrating the self-pattern; cultivating concentration and present-moment awareness; cultivating mindful awareness; self-deconstruction (non-self) states; self-flexibility; and self-liberation as a trait. This conceptual analysis and integrative view contributes to the growing field of consciousness and contemplative research by advancing the contemporary understanding of non-self experience and its relation to Buddhist and secular meditation. The proposed model serves as a basis for interdisciplinary efforts to guide empirical research in this area.
