modern cognitive and neuroscientific accounts of decision making by modeling the cognitive …

Pupil-linked phasic arousal predicts a reduction of choice bias across species and decision domains

JW de Gee, K Tsetsos, L Schwabe, AE Urai… - Elife, 2020 - elifesciences.org
Decisions are often made by accumulating ambiguous evidence over time. The brain's
arousal systems are activated during such decisions. In previous work in humans, we found …

Thinking more or thinking differently? Using drift-diffusion modeling to illuminate why accuracy prompts decrease misinformation sharing

H Lin, G Pennycook, DG Rand - Cognition, 2023 - Elsevier
Recent experiments have found that prompting people to think about accuracy reduces
misinformation sharing intentions. The process by which this effect operates, however …

Likelihood approximation networks (LANs) for fast inference of simulation models in cognitive neuroscience

A Fengler, LN Govindarajan, T Chen, MJ Frank - Elife, 2021 - elifesciences.org
