Local Search and the Evolution of World Models
Abstract An open question regarding how people develop their models of the world is how new candidates are generated for consideration out of infinitely many possibilities. We discuss the role that evolutionary mechanisms play in this process. Specifically, we argue that when it comes to developing a global world model, innovation is necessarily ...

Abstract Optimal allocation of resources to the management of biosecurity risk, threatened species conservation or natural hazards such as bushfires is imperative—because program budgets are usually finite and, therefore, constrained. However, effectively dividing resources among management activities to achieve the greatest benefit remains a ...

An Introduction to Predictive Processing Models of Perception and Decision‐Making
Abstract The predictive processing framework includes a broad set of ideas, which might be articulated and developed in a variety of ways, concerning how the brain may leverage predictive models when implementing perception, cognition, decision‐making, and motor control.

Abstract Background Emotional and motivational aspects of teacher–student relationships are central to adolescents' psychological need satisfaction and academic development. However, few longitudinal studies examine how these relational experiences evolve during adolescence or co‐occur with emotional‐motivational functioning.

Abstract Explainable AI (XAI) methods provide explanations of AI models, but our understanding of how they compare with human explanations remains limited. Here, we examined human participants' attention strategies when classifying images and when explaining how they classified the images through eye‐tracking and compared their attention strategies ...

Abstract This study examined the relationships between generalized trust, climate change conspiracy beliefs and freecycling – a community‐based free‐item sharing pro‐environmental behaviour. It also explored the role of societal factors in relation to participation in freecycling, as well as how they are associated with these relationships.

Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

A tutorial on Bayesian model averaging for exponential random graph models
Abstract The use of exponential random graph models (ERGMs) is becoming prevalent in psychology due to their ability to explain and predict the formation of edges between vertices in a network. Valid inference with ERGMs requires correctly specifying endogenous and exogenous effects as network statistics, guided by theory, to represent the network ...
