Parsing a cognitive task : a characterization of the mind’s bottleneck
(2005-02-08)
Parsing a mental operation into components, characterizing the parallel or serial nature of this flow, and understanding what each process ultimately contributes to response time are fundamental questions in cognitive ...
Choosing in freedom or forced to choose? Introspective blindness to psychological forcing in stage-magic
(2013-03-13)
We investigated an individual ability to identify whether choices were made freely or forced by external parameters. We
capitalized on magical setups where the notion of psychological forcing constitutes a well trodden ...
Delays without mistakes : response time and error distributions in dual-task
(2008-09-12)
Background: When two tasks are presented within a short interval, a delay in the execution of the second task has been systematically observed. Psychological theorizing has argued that while sensory and motor operations ...
Dynamics of the central bottleneck : dual-task and task uncertainty
(2006-06-27)
Why is the human brain fundamentally limited when attempting to execute two tasks at the same time or in close succession? Two classical paradigms, psychological refractory period (PRP) and task switching, have independently ...
The presence of irrelevant alternatives paradoxically increases confidence in perceptual decisions
(Cognition, 2023)
Confidence in perceptual decisions is thought to reflect the probability of being correct.
According to this view, confidence should be unaffected or minimally reduced by the
presence of irrelevant alternatives. To test ...
The neural basis of decision-making and reward processing in adults with euthymic bipolar disorder or attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
(2012-05-18)
Background: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and bipolar disorder (BD) share DSM-IV criteria in adults and
cause problems in decision-making. Nevertheless, no previous report has assessed a decision-making ...
Comparing experience- and description-based economic preferences across 11 countries
(Nature Human Behaviour (e-ISSN: 2397-3374), 2024-06-14)
Recent evidence indicates that reward value encoding in humans is
highly context dependent, leading to suboptimal decisions in some
cases, but whether this computational constraint on valuation is a
shared feature ...
Promoting Erroneous Divergent Opinions Increases the Wisdom of Crowds
(Universidad Torcuato Di Tella, 2024)
The aggregation of many lay judgements generates surprisingly accurate estimates. This phenomenon,
called the “wisdom of crowds”, has been demonstrated in domains such as medical decision making and
financial forecasting. ...
