Excited to share our new preprint on longitudinal changes in infant attention networks and their link to fear! My first paper in Courtney Filippi - Infant Brain & Behavior Lab in New York – grateful for the support! 🧠💫

Longitudinal changes in infant attention-related brain networks and fearful temperament
Anxiety disorders are hypothesized to stem in part from altered development of attention-related brain networks. These networks, including the dorsal attention network (DAN), frontal parietal network ...

Check out our new preprint! It's especially useful for looking at rhythmicity in infant EEG signals 🧠👶

We're happy to announce the release of a preprint presenting lagged Hilbert autocoherence for determining signal rhythmicity at different frequencies. Fantastic work by Siqi Zhang, @maciekszul.bsky.social, and some others who have not made the leap over here. 🧠📈 🧠💻

Multi-scale parameterization of neural rhythmicity with lagged Hilbert autocoherence
Analysis of neural activity in different frequency bands is ubiquitous in systems and cognitive neuroscience. Recent analytical breakthroughs and theoretical developments rely on phase maintenance of ...

📣 New paper! 📣

How do we assess the veracity of ambiguous news, and does metacognition guide our decisions to seek further information?

Read the full article: www.nature.com/articles/s44...

Key findings below 🧵

Metacognition biases information seeking in assessing ambiguous news - Communications Psychology
Judging ambiguous news stories, participants’ confidence determines whether they are willing to pay to receive or avoid extra information.
