Why does it feel good to be sure? In new work @voalan.bsky.social @andero.bsky.social and I bridge confidence and affect. In perceptual DM, we found a remarkably consistent association between both measures! ↓↓↓ link: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... #PsychSciSky #Neuroscience #Neuroskyence

Metacognitive confidence and affect – two sides of the same coin?
Decision confidence is a prototypical metacognitive representation that is thought to approximate the probability that a decision is correct. The perception of being correct has also been associate...

New publication in Psychological Research led by Nancy Wang with @lucvermeylen.bsky.social, Ivan Grahek, and Gilles Pourtois! We investigated how hypervigilance affects balance of external and internal attention, specifically asymmetrical switch costs. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Hypervigilance strikes a balance between external and internal attention: behavioral and modeling evidence from the switching attention task - Psychological Research
Hypervigilance involves increased attentional scanning of the environment to facilitate the detection of possible threats. Accordingly, this state is mostly bound to external attention and as a coroll...

We wrote a brief opinion article, with @chaimengqiao, Leslie Held, and @ShengjieXu0813, on why we believe most cognitive control processes should not be considered off-the-shelf processes that can be readily applied in any task, whenever asked to: authors.elsevier.com/a/1iSXH8MqMi... (1/3)

New review paper out with Tom Verguts! osf.io/preprints/ps... We argue that cognitive flexibility requires hierarchy and modularity. However, adding these computational features to classic learning rules comes with several challenges. Challenges that can be addressed by AI and cognitive scientists.
