If a visual stimulus leads to higher confidence but not higher accuracy, would it also have higher weight in multisensory cue combination? In a new preprint we show that the answer is yes. Work led by Yi Gao with @Kai_Xue1201 and @BrianOdegaard2.

This is a great opportunity for a postdoc. If you come from psych/ neuroscience, don't be put off by the position being in an Econ department. Flexible topic, smart and incredibly kind colleagues, and all in a beautiful city with a strong decision-making community.
Out now: our latest work on models of confidence. We explored suprathreshold decision-making & how much confidence reports were in agreement across repeated stimulus presentations!

Very happy to see that our work with Catherine Tallon-baudry on the gastric network is finally out in the journal of neuroscience @SfNJournals https://t.co/ccR421YNzE @SfNJournals
A new preprint is up reported by @rei_akaishi.
"Emergent Prosocial Behavior During Dynamic Human Group Formation" https://t.co/aWlVTJ0kFi via @OSFramework
Is confidence a reinforcement learning signal? While there is prior neuroimaging work to suggest so, we wanted to find out whether - behaviorally - confidence affects value representations when external reward-based feedback is not available. Preprint: https://t.co/0f3SDe29RH
Overall, this is just a follow-up, but we strengthen past results and replicate them using a different task. Moreover, the way we probe confidence at the end and use it to infer previous confidence may be useful for experiments where explicitly mentioning confidence is not wanted
Very very happy to share chapter 2 of our inquiry into the effects of multitasking on metacognition with Bruno Berberian, Vincent de Gardelle, and @JeromeSackur!

If you're at #VSS21, come in 30 minutes to check out @Mynameismedha's poster on "How do humans give confidence". Medha has fit the 12 most popular models of confidence, examined their quantitative and qualitative fits, as well as their similarity. 1/4
