Computational mechanisms of belief updating in relation to psychotic-like experiences [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2023 IntroductionPsychotic-like experiences (PLEs) may occur due to changes in weighting prior beliefs and new evidence in the belief updating process. It is still unclear whether the acquisition or integration of stable beliefs is altered, and whether such ...

Is depression associated with reduced optimistic belief updating? [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2022 When asked to evaluate their probability of experiencing a negative life event, healthy individuals update their beliefs more following good news than bad. This is referred to as optimistic belief updating. By contrast, individuals with depression update

Frequency-specific changes in prefrontal activity associated with maladaptive belief updating in volatile environments in euthymic bipolar disorder [PDF]
Translational PsychiatryBipolar disorder (BD) involves altered reward processing and decision-making, with inconsistencies across studies. Here, we integrated hierarchical Bayesian modelling with magnetoencephalography (MEG) to characterise maladaptive belief updating in this ...

Individual differences in belief updating and phasic arousal are related to psychosis proneness [PDF]
Communications PsychologyMany decisions entail the updating of beliefs about the state of the environment by accumulating noisy sensory evidence. This form of probabilistic reasoning may go awry in psychosis.

Motivated Belief Updating and Rationalization of Information
Management Science, 2022 We study belief updating about relative performance in an ego-relevant task. Manipulating the perceived ego relevance of the task, we show that subjects substantially overweight positive information relative to negative information because they derive ...
