This follows from work showing random generation can be used to elicit beliefs in non-numerical domains which I mentioned the other day!

🎉New preprint out led by @PabloLenVillag1! We use random generation as a way to elicit people's beliefs. This is as accurate as other elicitation methods, but it can be used in non-numeric domains. Check it out here https://t.co/dFKe1IUfQr

🚀New preprint out led by Johanna Falbén! We use random generation to predict performance in a stereotype priming task.

It does so better than using participants' explicit estimates of the proportions of men and women in those jobs as a predictor, and better than the true proportions.

🚨NEW PAPER🚨

Proud and excited to see this paper out in print @PNASNews

@dirkuwulff and I asked ourselves: How do people search for information before making a choice? We analyzed over 1M information-search decisions to answer that.

Gino's case against us has been dismissed.

Scientists cannot effectively sue other scientists for exposing fraud/errors in their work.

Those who work to correct the scientific record can sleep better tonight. Those who don’t want it corrected, well, I don’t care how they sleep.

[Cognitive Modelling & Decision Neuroscience @CMDNLab]

We had a fantastic time at our first lab retreat at the North Sea Coast in Büsum! Besides catching up on our research projects, we discussed challenges in modeling, the future of our field and lab, and career opportunities in science. Thanks to all for this great experience! 🌅

✅New Paper (with @SebastianGluth ) is now available online (https://t.co/awd8BRsG14)
Here, we review the cognitive models incorporating eye-movement data and outline their assumptions and predictions about the interactions between visual attention, options, and choices. 👀💡

[Yun-Xiao Li / 李云箫 @YunXiao_Li814]

🥳 Excited to announce that the R package "samplr" developed by Lucas Castillo, Adam N Sanborn, and me, has just been published!
It is a tool for simulating the process of mental sampling and decisions. Feel free to try it, and let us know your thoughts! https://t.co/MUFndDGCYL

[Lucas Castillo @lcs_castillo]

I hope you want to check it out and play with it a bit! Thanks again @YunXiao_Li814, Adam Sanborn for all the work help and comments throughout!

Hi!
The samplr package is now on CRAN!! 🥳🥳🥳https://t.co/j7DxiW8iog
This is work that @YunXiao_Li814, Adam Sanborn and I have been doing for some time now (thanks for your work and help!!), so I'm very excited to have reached this milestone. Some notes follow (1/6)
