UCLA Psychology lab that studies Neuroeconomics, Decision Psychology/Neuroscience, Cognitive Psychology/Neuroscience/Economics, etc. We specialize in combining mathematical models with choice-process measures.
New paper in @cognitionjournal.bsky.social, where we show how attention impacts political choices. With an eye-tracking study, we find that people's votes aren't set in stone - they take longer to vote on divisive issues and can be swayed by gaze manipulations. authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S...

Belated congratulations to our former labmate Miruna Cotet
for her Paper of the Year Award from the Society for Neuroeconomics. The award celebrates her work on the cognitive dynamics of bargaining, using eBay data, published in PNAS. pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1... #SNE2025

That’s a wrap for #SNE2025! Grateful for the chance to share some of our recent work as a spotlight this year and thankful to the society for supporting me as one of this year’s travel award winners along with @gloriawfeng.bsky.social, @jaehyungwoo.bsky.social, Laura Globig, and Minho Hwang)!

For anyone on the west side of Los Angeles, I'll be at the Rosegold Saloon tomorrow evening, presenting at the Pint of Science event there. I'll be giving an overview of my lab's research, pub style. We'll be wrestling with the age-old question - ale or lager? pintofscience.us/event/from-b...
From Bacteria to Neurons: How our brain makes decisions and develops
How does the brain process decision making? How do bacteria in your gut talk to your brain? Dr. Kraibich will discuss how our memory affects the way we mak…

Excited to share a new Trends in Cognitive Sciences paper that I had the pleasure to be a part of. This is an interdisciplinary perspective on the dynamics of cognitive costs, namely when these costs occur and how they impact our decisions. #neuroeconomics www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

The West Coast Neuroeconomics Mini-Symposium hosted by @radyschool.bsky.social just wrapped on Saturday, and it was a genuinely fantastic (always too brief) few days of science.

New article on the role of attention in opportunity-cost neglect, with the fabulous Steph Smith and @spillersas.bsky.social. Outside options that are explicit (Keep Money) vs implicit (Don't Buy), attract more attention, both gaze and gaze effect on choice. 1/n authors.elsevier.com/c/1kycc_Ebvv...

🚨New paper in CABN with Brandon Turner's lab🚨
We use an averaging diffusion model and fMRI to study how the brain estimates average evidence in perceptual and economic tasks. We find recency and primacy effects that are highly consistent across tasks. link.springer.com/article/10.3...

Retrospective judgments require decision-makers to gather information over time and integrate that information into a summary statistic like the average. Many retrospective judgments require putting e...

Thrilled to share our new paper in PNAS on bargaining in the "wild" (eBay). We find that bargainers reveal private information by taking hours longer to reject good offers and accept bad offers. We can predict bargaining outcomes from response times. newsroom.ucla.edu/releases/res... 1/3
