    Every day we make decisions about the actions we want to perform. These decisions are based on a trade-off between the benefits we hope to obtain from performing these actions, and the costs, in terms of effort, associated with those actions. This thesis examines the neural correlates of the cost/benefit trade-off through three studies conducted in healthy participants using functional magnetic resonance imaging. In the first study, we were able to dissociate the neural correlates of the computation of the cost/benefit trade-off from the neural correlates of the variables regulating this computation. Indeed, in this study, the computation of the cost/benefit trade-off was associated with the ventromedial prefrontal cortex, whereas confidence in the decision and the time spent in deliberating were associated with more dorsal parts of the medial prefrontal cortex. With our second study, we observed that, in two tasks, involving a mental or a physical effort, the performance was better explained by a Pavlovian bias than by loss aversion. In other words, as opposed to what has been shown mainly in choice tasks, individuals tended to give more weight to gains than to losses. The third study allowed us to show that, even in a simple reinforcement learning task, the brain areas linked to the exertion of a mental effort were recruited while the cost/benefit trade-off was being computed, suggesting that this task was not carried out purely automatically. All these results allow us to better characterize the brain areas involved in the cost/benefit trade-off and the conditions in which these areas are active.Tous les jours, nous prenons des dĂ©cisions sur les actions que nous souhaitons entreprendre. Ces dĂ©cisions se fondent sur un compromis entre les bĂ©nĂ©fices que nous espĂ©rons obtenir aprĂšs avoir effectuĂ© ces actions, et les coĂ»ts, en termes d’effort, associĂ©s Ă  ces actions. Cette thĂšse s’intĂ©resse aux bases cĂ©rĂ©brales du compromis coĂ»ts/bĂ©nĂ©fices au travers de trois Ă©tudes menĂ©es chez des participants sains Ă  l’aide de l’imagerie par rĂ©sonance magnĂ©tique fonctionnelle. Dans la premiĂšre Ă©tude, nous avons pu dissocier les bases cĂ©rĂ©brales du calcul du compromis coĂ»ts/bĂ©nĂ©fices des bases cĂ©rĂ©brales des variables rĂ©gulant ce calcul. En effet, dans cette Ă©tude, le calcul du compromis coĂ»ts/bĂ©nĂ©fices Ă©tait associĂ© au cortex prĂ©frontal ventromĂ©dian alors que la confiance dans la dĂ©cision et le temps passĂ© Ă  dĂ©libĂ©rer Ă©taient associĂ©s Ă  des parties plus dorsales du cortex prĂ©frontal mĂ©dian. La seconde Ă©tude a permis de montrer que, dans deux tĂąches, impliquant un effort mental ou physique, la performance s’expliquait mieux par un biais pavlovien, donnant plus de poids aux gains qu’aux pertes, que par une aversion Ă  la perte, telle qu’elle a Ă©tĂ© caractĂ©risĂ©e principalement dans des tĂąches de choix. La troisiĂšme Ă©tude nous a permis de montrer que, mĂȘme dans une tĂąche simple d’apprentissage par renforcement, les aires cĂ©rĂ©brales liĂ©es Ă  l’exĂ©cution d’un effort mental Ă©taient recrutĂ©es au moment du calcul du compromis coĂ»ts/bĂ©nĂ©fices, suggĂ©rant que cette tĂąche n’était pas effectuĂ©e de maniĂšre purement automatique. L’ensemble de nos rĂ©sultats permet de mieux caractĂ©riser les aires cĂ©rĂ©brales impliquĂ©es dans le compromis coĂ»ts/bĂ©nĂ©fices et les conditions dans lesquelles ces aires sont actives

    José Emperaire et les Qawasqar. Notes linguistiques inédites sur Les Nomades de la Mer

    Annette and JosĂ© Emperaire dedicated an important part of their life to the study of the culture of the indians of Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego. After living approximately two years with the Qawasqar of occidental Patagonia, also called Alakaluf, JosĂ© Emperaire gathered an important documentation about their life and their culture. His book Les Nomades de la Mer is devoted to them. One of his intentions was to publish a dictionary of their language which had been neglected by the linguists. Part of his original linguistic notes are published here, thanks to the generosity of Annette Laming-Emperaire. Without modifying anything, we simply added a phonologic notation for each term.Annette et JosĂ© Emperaire ont consacrĂ© une grande partie de leur vie Ă  l'Ă©tude de la culture des indiens de la Patagonie et de la Terre de Feu.

Son livre Les Nomades de la Mer leur est consacrĂ©. Une de ses intentions Ă©tait de publier un dictionnaire de leur langue, nĂ©gligĂ©e Ă  l'Ă©poque par les linguistes.
