Tutorial code + solutions now publicly available via GitHub! If you are curious, take a look and let us know if we can make it any better 🙌

Have you been reading papers with two-step tasks (characterizing behavior as model-based or model-free), and are you interested in them but also feel a bit intimidated? @ClaireRSmid and I have a set of tutorials for that: https://t.co/K4kFu4q1lC

ok ok made a handy guide for the gamers to understand

💯 💯💯 It's all about the team dynamics

[Claire Smid @ClaireRSmid]

Some exciting news 👀 me and @_evelyntan are working in esports to analyse 👏team dynamics👏 looking to turn this into a startup, keep an eye on us! 👁

[Evelyn Tan, PhD @_evelyntan]

Still curious?!

I'm building a #startup with @ClaireRSmid in the #esports x #teamdynamics x #analytics space!

We're combining our backgrounds in team dynamics/#communication and cognitive #neuroscience/decision-making to build something cool!

Keep an eye on us 👀

[Evelyn Tan, PhD @_evelyntan]

Spent a day at @warwickesports with @Coach_Fenton doing a deep dive on #communication analytics and what comms can tell us about players’ in-game #mental state 👀

The #esports facility here is 💯

If you care about this, please reach out —I’m building a #startup in this space.

After 8 years in academic research, I am starting my own company! 👷‍♀️

My goal is to use my research to address financial inequality for womxn and people of minority backgrounds.

I'd love to talk to anyone with experience or opinions - please do reach out! 🤓 @join_ef

Well this is chilling. The UK government has quietly just removed "sexual and reproductive health and rights" & "bodily autonomy" from a multinational statement committing to the fundamental rights of women & girls. Why exactly? Abortion is a human right.

@Tracy3513amumu Hiya! That's a really good question - I am actually looking at intelligence (e.g. crystallised intelligence and fluid reasoning) now in relationship to MBDM and we're not seeing too strong connections. I would be happy to chat about this if you want?

This paper investigates sophisticated decision-making strategies in children using reinforcement learning and shows that the ability to use a transition structure of the world to make decisions for reward emerges earlier than previously thought (12/12🧵)

Our new paper “Computational and behavioral markers of model-based decision making in childhood” has just come out in Developmental Science @WileyPsychology! 🥳 [link: https://t.co/f79TTu5ywo] Following below are the highlights of the paper (1/12🧵)

[Claire Smid @ClaireRSmid]

For adults, we found that they displayed both model-based decision-making and successful metacontrol. The computational findings were mirrored in the behavioral results, indicating that both methods managed to capture model-based decision-making. (11/12🧵)
