Check out this new work from @ranimo.bsky.social and colleagues, who used reinforcement learning to study the cognitive biases that affect us when forming beliefs based on non-credible information. elifesciences.org/articles/106...

Disinformation elicits learning biases
Learning from potential disinformation introduces specific cognitive biases, causing individuals to systematically deviate from an idealized Bayesian updating strategy.

Thrilled to announce I've received a small grant from the Experimental Psychology Society, @exppsychsoc.bsky.social. Huge thanks to Lucie, @luciecharlesneuro.bsky.social for helping shape the idea. We'll explore how and when people become aware of mastering new motor skills during motor learning.
