New paper out in EXBR! Me and Joshua Skewes looked at how concepts relevant to decision-making and learning (e.g. confidence and prediction errors) are expressed in the movements associated with decision actions. I had great fun working on this! link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Our new preprint is out! Here we investigate the possibility to reduce transfer of social threat learning to decision-making through extinction learning. Remarkably, extinction did not have any impact on this potentially maladaptive transfer. With Björn Lindström and Andreas Olsson

Two openings for really interesting postdoc positions focusing on mechanisms of social learning and cultural evolution working with Björn Lindström. Please spread. 🌟

'Because of' became an instant mega hit once Shervin Hajipour composed the song from the tweets he had seen with a similar trending hashtag. Through it, Iranians r listing their yearnings & grievances against their country's regime following #MahsaAmini 's death.

Great postdoc opportunity!

Always a pleasure spending some time at Interacting Minds making plans and getting new ideas. Thanks everyone! I hope the fancy coffee machine will be up and running the next time I return though.

Bans now limit Western access to Putin's propaganda.

Most of us have no interest in propaganda. But there is reason to pause.

Not only are bans out of sync with the science of misinformation. They may also be detrimental to our fight for democracy.

Can social media engagement be explained by reward learning? Yes! In our new preprint (w. David Amodio), we use RL modeling to explain the posting behavior of 4000+ individuals on several social media platforms: psyarxiv.com/78mh5 summary follows: (1/7)

We all should eat food that is healthy & good for our planet. But there are all these mouth-watering things… So could we overcome preferences for familiar food flavours in favour of healthier/sustainable ones?

Yesterday I said we must hold our leaders accountable and unfortunately said “put them against the wall”. That’s Swenglish: “att ställa någon mot väggen” (to put someone against the wall) means to hold someone accountable.

Suddenly got more options in life: 'This is an excellent application addressing an interesting research question with a broad methodological toolbox.
The outcomes will likely attract interest from a wide range of research fields, including basic science and more
applied areas.'

No one knows what attention is. #openaccess paper by Hommel, Chapman, Cisek, Neyedli, Song and Welsh. #neuroscience #attention #intention #actionselection #evolution . link.springer.com/article/10.375…

Highly important and interesting work.
