Base-Rate Respect by Intuition: Approximating Rational Choices in Base-Rate Tasks with Multiple Cues [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2008 Although intuitive-automatic processes sometimes lead to systematic biases in judgment and choice, in many situations especially this kind of processes enables people to approximate rational choices. In complex base-rate tasks with repeated outcome feedback we observed choices which were in line with the Bayes' solution in 86% of the cases and which ...

Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Biological invasions are a serious problem in natural ecosystems. Local species that are potential prey of invasive alien predators can be threatened by their inability to recognize invasive predator cues.

Learning Contextual Reward Expectations for Value Adaptation [PDF]
, 2018 Substantial evidence indicates that subjective value is adapted to the statistics of reward expected within a given temporal context. However, how these contextual expectations are learned is poorly understood.

Modeling adaptation of carbon use efficiency in microbial communities
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 In new microbial-biogeochemical models, microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) is often assumed to decline with increasing temperature. Under this assumption, soil carbon losses under warming are small because microbial biomass declines. Yet there is also

Attention, predictive learning, and the inverse base-rate effect: Evidence from event-related potentials [PDF]
, 2014 We report the first electrophysiological investigation of the inverse base-rate effect (IBRE), a robust non-rational bias in predictive learning. In the IBRE, participants learn that one pair of symptoms (AB) predicts a frequently occurring disease ...

Ready ... Go: Amplitude of the fMRI Signal Encodes Expectation of Cue Arrival Time [PDF]
, 2009 What happens when the brain awaits a signal of uncertain arrival time, as when a sprinter waits for the starting pistol? And what happens just after the starting pistol fires? Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), we have discovered a novel

Carbon Use Efficiency and Its Temperature Sensitivity Covary in Soil Bacteria
mBio, 2020 The strategy that microbial decomposers take with respect to using substrate for growth versus maintenance is one essential biological determinant of the propensity of carbon to remain in soil.

Focusing and orienting spatial attention differently modulate crowding in central and peripheral vision [PDF]
, 2018 The allocation of attentional resources to a particular location or object in space involves two distinct processes: an orienting process and a focusing process.
