Check out our new paper in which we identify a model that can jointly account for the timing and accuracy of perceptual choices, the timing and level of subsequent confidence judgments and the pre- and post-choice dynamics of neural decision signals
Our newest preprint is out (doi.org/10.1101/2025.06.05.658071), with @lucvermeylen.bsky.social,Dasha Monakhovych, Cameron McCabe, Sarah-Louise Mannion, @kobedesender.bsky.social, @redmondoconnell.bsky.social, comparing post-decision confidence models against behaviour and neural decision signals...
Neurally-informed modelling unravels a single evidence accumulation process for choices and subsequent confidence reports
Subjective confidence in perceptual choices depends on computations occurring prior to and after choice commitment. However, the nature of these computations remains unclear. Current models disagree o...

“Regressing common choice signals away does not make them artifacts"
Please check out our commentary on the Frömer et al paper (2024, Nature Human Behaviour) in which we highlight important problems with the analysis and interpretation of their perceptual choice data.

Regressing Away Common Neural Choice Signals does not make them Artifacts. Comment on Frömer et al (2024, Nature Human Behaviour)
The recent paper by Frömer et al (2024, Nature Human Behaviour) examines a component of the event-related potential (ERP) known as the centro-parietal positivity (CPP) that has been widely implicated ...

New paper from our very own @patmckeown.bsky.social in Visual Cognition, investigating opposite direction motion reports (ODMR) in RDKs. We looked at the role of display frame rate and confidence in these peculiar reports.
