Model-based algorithms shape automatic evaluative processing | PNAS
Computational theories of reinforcement learning suggest that two families of algorithm—model-based
and model-free—tightly map onto the classic dis...
A key takeaway from 20+ years of computational RL is: model-free=automatic, model-based=deliberate. My new paper w/ @benedek.bsky.social challenges this view, suggesting that MB algos are more ubiquitous, & automatic processing more sophisticated, than currently thought: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

What makes people feel entitled to rewards—the effort they put into their work or the outcomes they achieve?
Out now in PNAS; with Jin Kim and Jared Wong:
Achievement.
Effort seems to matter very little (if at all).

Introspection has gotten a bad rap over the years. Here we show that people have more insight into the algorithms behind their decisions than we tend to assume. Thrilled to see this work out at Nature Comms with the always brilliant @thatadammorris.bsky.social!

A new and fresh paper calls for a fresh start on a new platform. Hi y'all! 👋
Check out my paper with @spillersas.bsky.social and @krajbichlab.bsky.social - we look at the multi-faceted role of attention in opportunity cost neglect, using eye-tracking + computational modeling. Read more at the link!
