Very happy to see our ice-fishing paper on the cover of @science.org this week! 🎣🎉

We tracked large groups of Finnish competitive ice-fishers to study how social foragers use social information when searching for resources. 🐟

People haven't taken up more computational modelling in the ethos of the blue path model in the OP. What I've seen is more equivocation between model & system under study. Removing the ability of models to act as mediators. See also: doi.org/10.1007/s421... doi.org/10.1007/s421... 3/

New article in Cognitive Psychology with @thorstenpachur.bsky.social and Veronika Zilker: “How sampling strategies shape experience-based risky choice.”

We present a computational framework for information search and choice in decisions from experience. 1/4

For all who use Bayesian hierarchical models, have a look at our new preprint, out now together with @linushof.bsky.social @nunobusch.bsky.social and @thorstenpachur.bsky.social

Congratulations to @linushof.bsky.social from our lab @tum.de for being the runner-up at this year’s #teap2025 poster competition! His research shows that people search adaptively in decisions from experience.
