Addressing the climate crisis requires citizens to make informed choices about sustainable energy policy, yet public debates are often shaped by inaccurate beliefs about the environmental and health i...

Abstract. Perceptual learning can occur without external feedback, raising questions about what internal signals might guide this learning. Here, we test t

People’s reward learning is shaped by context, but the cognitive origins of this bias remain poorly understood. Here, the authors provide evidence that attention may underlie these distortions by shap...

On why rhe intuition that using AI in research is a form of cheating rests on a wrong picture of how Science works and of what it is for.

Perceptual multistability, observed across species and sensory modalities, offers valuable insights into numerous cognitive functions and dysfunctions. For instance, differences in temporal dynamics a...

A one-day workshop on behavioral clones — AI systems that model human decision-making and social behavior.

From equations to fitted models in minutes: what LLMs are changing in computational cognitive science and how we should adapt.

New Haven, USA (July 14-16, 2026)

Abstract. Large Language Models (LLMs) have rapidly become a central topic in AI and cognitive science, due to their unprecedented performance in a vast ar

Intensive training for experienced researchers in cognitive science, computational neuroscience and neuro-AI. Five interconnected modules, expert faculty, hands-on projects. July 12-23, 2026.

Understanding the behaviour of the machines powered by artificial intelligence that increasingly mediate our social, cultural, economic and political interactions is essential to our ability to contro...

Nature Communications - Normative theory predicts that feedback should not affect decisions under risk, but past findings disagree. Here, the authors show that feedback shifts risk-taking by...

Genuine learning biases persist after accounting for temporally decreasing learning rates: Insight from fitting six datasets
