New preprint w/ Malin Styrnal & @martinhebart.bsky.social

Have you ever computed noise ceilings to understand how well a model performs? We wrote a clarifying note on a subtle and common misapplication that can make models appear quite a lot better than they are.

Information search under uncertainty across transdiagnostic psychopathology and healthy ageing Translational Psychiatry - Information search under uncertainty across transdiagnostic psychopathology and healthy ageing

Reduced confidence associated with aging increases information seeking under uncertainty, whereas confidence alterations associated with symptoms of psychopathology do not. Out now w/ Greta Mohr & @robince.bsky.social. #neuroskyence #compneuro #PsychSciSky: rdcu.be/dSPdz

Strength of predicted information content in the brain biases decision behavior Yan etย al. reveal the visual contents that the brain predicts before the stimulus is shown. They show that these contents flow down from ventral to occipital cortex, where they are lateralized. Criti...

Great new paper by Yuening Yan & Philippe Schyns and colleagues. Uses MEG and very sophisticated analyses to demonstrate that the prediction of specific stimulus features, rather than coarse categories, biases perception. #neuroskyence #compneurosky

Lovely study linking individual differences in confidence and information seeking to ageing and mental health - interesting to see underconfidence with age can be ameliorated with greater info seeking - by @chrisbenwell.bsky.social and team psyarxiv.com/vc7ye/

Naturalistic reinforcement learning Humans possess a remarkable ability to make decisions within real-world environments that are expansive, complex, and multidimensional. Human cognitivโ€ฆ

๐ŸŒŸFirst post over here, which I'm very happy to use to share a new paper in TICS with Angela Radulescu & Kara Emery. ๐ŸŒŸ

We review work taking an approach we refer to as "naturalistic reinforcement learning", which uses more naturalistic approaches to study learning and decision-making.
