Over the past century, psychologists have discussed whether forgetting might arise from
active mechanisms that promote memory loss to achieve various functions, such as …

There is growing interest in diffusion models to represent the cognitive and neural processes
of speeded decision making. Sequential-sampling models like the diffusion model have a …

Response inhibition is essential for navigating everyday life. Its derailment is considered
integral to numerous neurological and psychiatric disorders, and more generally, to a wide …

Sequential sampling models assume that people make speeded decisions by gradually
accumulating noisy information until a threshold of evidence is reached. In cognitive …

Attention is a core property of all perceptual and cognitive operations. Given limited capacity
to process competing options, attentional mechanisms select, modulate, and sustain focus …

Response inhibition is a hallmark of executive control. The concept refers to the suppression
of actions that are no longer required or that are inappropriate, which supports flexible and …

Response inhibition is an important act of control in many domains of psychology and
neuroscience. It is often studied in a stop-signal task that requires subjects to inhibit an …

Salient cues can prompt the rapid interruption of planned actions. It has been proposed that
fast, reactive behavioral inhibition involves specific basal ganglia pathways, and we tested …

The prominence of Bayesian modeling of cognition has increased recently largely because
of mathematical advances in specifying and deriving predictions from complex probabilistic …

For nearly 50 years, the dominant account of decision-making holds that noisy information is
accumulated until a fixed threshold is crossed. This account has been tested extensively …
