Unifying Speed-Accuracy Trade-Off and Cost-Benefit Trade-Off in Human Reaching Movements

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Two basic trade-offs interact while our brain decides how to move our body. First, with the cost-benefit trade-off, the brain trades between the importance of moving faster toward a target that is more rewarding and the increased muscular cost resulting ...

How Do People Perform an Inspection Time Task? An Examination of Visual Illusions, Task Experience, and Blinking

open access: yesJournal of Cognition, 2020
In the inspection time (IT) paradigm, participants view two lines of unequal length (called the Pi-figure) for a short exposure time, and then judge which of the two lines was longer.

Neural Mechanisms of Speed-Accuracy Tradeoff [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2012
Intelligent agents balance speed of responding with accuracy of deciding. Stochastic accumulator models commonly explain this speed-accuracy tradeoff by strategic adjustment of response threshold. Several laboratories identify specific neurons in prefrontal and parietal cortex with this accumulation process, yet no neurophysiological correlates of ...

Water bathing alters the speed-accuracy trade-off of escape flights in European starlings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Birds of most species regularly bathe in water, but the function of this behaviour is unknown. We tested the hypothesis that water bathing is important in feather maintenance, and hence should enhance flight performance. We manipulated European starlings'

Speed and Accuracy of Gaze Gestures

open access: yesJournal of Eye Movement Research, 2009
We conducted an experiment where participants carried out six gaze gesture tasks. The gaze paths were analyzed to find out the speed and accuracy of the gaze gestures.

Predictive feedback control and Fitts' law [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Fitts’ law is a well established empirical formula, known for encapsulating the “speed-accuracy trade-off”. For discrete, manual movements from a starting location to a target, Fitts’ law relates movement duration to the distance moved and target size ...

Speed and accuracy of visual motion discrimination by rats. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Animals must continuously evaluate sensory information to select the preferable among possible actions in a given context, including the option to wait for more information before committing to another course of action.

Accuracy in Online Media: Insufficient Journalistic Routines in Fact-Checking and Corrections

open access: yesMedijske Studije, 2020
Accuracy is at the core of what journalists do and it amounts to journalistic commitment to report without errors. This tenet of journalism is now in danger, because of the influence of digitalization, changes in media landscapes, and the utilization of ...

fMRI investigation of speed–accuracy strategy switching [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Brain Mapping, 2011
AbstractSwitching between rapid and accurate responses is an important aspect of decision‐making. However, the brain mechanisms important to smoothly change the speed–accuracy strategy remain mostly unclear. This issue was addressed here by using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
