In many daily tasks, we make multiple decisions before reaching a goal. In order to learn
such sequences of decisions, a mechanism to link earlier actions to later reward is …

Attention is biased toward emotional stimuli, even when they are irrelevant to current goals.
Motivation, elicited by performance-contingent reward, reduces behavioural emotional …

This study focused on the prediction of intrinsic and extraneous cognitive load using eye-
tracking metrics, heart rate variability, and galvanic skin response. Intrinsic cognitive load is …

We introduce PyPlr—a versatile, integrated system of hardware and software to support a
broad spectrum of research applications concerning the human pupillary light reflex (PLR) …

An inconsistent relationship between the pronunciation and spelling of words in various
languages has been shown to affect the rate at which listeners recognize spoken words …

When humans or animals perform an action that led to a desired outcome, they show a
tendency to repeat it. The mechanisms underlying learning from past experience and …

Rhythm is a ubiquitous feature of music that induces specific neural modes of processing. In
the following studies, we employ a computational model to predict fluctuations in attention as …
