@rongbi.bsky.social😀Excited to share the new preprint!!!🥳 We show preserved self–other integration in social decision-making among individuals with elevated autistic traits (N = 1,621), highlighting the importance of large samples to validate null effects. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Show PostCheck out this new study by the fantastic @rongbi.bsky.social in the lab 🥳 👇 Rong carefully analysed human effort traces to gain insight into how we form and update priors about required effort when effort is not signalled and has to be learnt in environments differing in volatility and noise.
Show PostIn contrast to most lab settings, motivational demands (= required effort to achieve a goal) in the real world are often uncertain and learned from experience. Here, we took a first step to study the relevant learning and inference mechanisms when required effort changes unpredictably.
Show PostCheck out this lovely new work by @vivianpaulun.bsky.social with @rtpramod.bsky.social and @joshtenenbaum.bsky.social showing double dissociations within both the ventral and dorsal pathways for objects ("Things") versus fluids ("Stuff").
Show PostThis is intetresting, paper argues that dopamine also encodes "action prediction errors", i.e. differences between actions you predict you will make and actions you do, regardless of reward. Could be used to reinforce habits for repetitive voluntary behaviours: www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🧠📈 🧪
