😍 Our latest is out now in @commspsychol.nature.com. 🤩 We show with Bayesian modelling and experimental manipulation of uncertainty that developmental differences in social influence depend on differences in the internal uncertainty people have about their choice doi.org/10.1038/s442...

📢 Job announcement: Two (!) 3-year postdoc jobs in our lab at UCL 📢 🧠💫🔊 We are looking for postdocs interested in the abstract mechanisms underlying social cognition. Modelling, fMRI and non-invasive ultrasound, a new deep-brain stimulation method. Please RT www.ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/...

Very glad to finally share our paper on replay and successor representation learning! ✨

We are hiring for several research positions for this grant, starting early next year. Please reach out if you're interested! More details on the jobs here: devcompsy.org/wp-content/u...

"Individual differences in speed–accuracy trade-off influence social decision-making in dyads" 🚨Our paper has been published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B doi.org/10.1098/rspb... w/ Alan Tump @alantump.bsky.social, Ralf Kurvers @ralfkurvers.bsky.social @royalsocietypublishing.org 1/ 🧵👇

The deadline has been extended until July 16th! 👉 PhDs: hmc-lab.com/ERC_PhDs.html 👉 Postdoc: hmc-lab.com/ERC_Postdoc....

💥New postdoc position! 💥 Join us to explore how people learn from each other—and how that drives cultural evolution. Run experiments, build computational models & collaborate across Europe w. @lucasmolleman.bsky.social 📍 Stockholm More info: shorturl.at/CY4wk

🤩IT'S A PREPRINT 😍 Adolescents' social sensitivity isn't a bad thing—it's adaptive! In our new study, led by amazing Andrea Gradassi @connectedmindslab.bsky.social, we show that teens learned to copy successful peers faster than adults in a new multiplayer exploration task. osf.io/preprints/os...

🚀Join our team @tuda.bsky.social ! 🚀 I'm looking for 3 PhDs & 1 Postdoc for my @erc.europa.eu project “C4: Compositional Compression in Cognition and Culture” to study learning across individuals, teams, and cultural timescales 👉 PhD: hmc-lab.com/ERC_PhDs.html 👉 Postdoc: hmc-lab.com/ERC_Postdoc....

Are you in Oxford / London this week? Paris beginning of next? Let’s catch up! You can also see what my latest work is about without catching up :)

Romanticisation of mental health problems in adolescence: what's the deal with that? 🌟 NEW PREPRINT by Awa Ndour and me 🌟 (Romanticise = to portray something as more desirable or positive than it really is) Brief summary below (🧵) osf.io/preprints/os... #PsychSciSky #DevPsychSky #ClinPsychSky

1/n 🆕📄: How do children learn to adapt to different environments when making repeated choices? And what do cognitive immaturity and probability matching have to do with it? Our new article explores how kids & adults differ in probability learning across statistical task structures: mpib.berlin/R3RFy

Want to make nice graphs with me, starting this summer? I am hiring for two PhD positions at the University of Witten/Herdecke.

Out in @naturehumbehav.bsky.social Can people tell true from false news? Yes! Our meta-analysis shows that people rate true news as more accurate than false news (d = 1.12) and were better at spotting false news than at recognizing true news (d = 0.32). www.nature.com/articles/s41...

If you are curios about risk taking and wonder whats up with adolescents, i had a conversation with Sofia on our podcast serios about it. Big thanks to @anasofiamorais.bsky.social, I really enjoyed our conversation! I am sure the rest of you will, too go check it out! :)

What is driving social foraging dynamics in the wild? In a new pre-print, we investigate decision-making mechanisms in large groups of Finnish ice-fishers competing for resources: osf.io/preprints/ps... Big thanks to drone pilot Félicie Dhellemmes. 1/n youtu.be/I_RH2diXcAk

🏰 PhD position on computational modelling | collective dynamics | cultural evolution 🏰 Get in touch with any questions you might have and join me in beautiful Marburg! stellenangebote.uni-marburg.de/jobposting/c... (Deutsch) stellenangebote.uni-marburg.de/jobposting/3... (English)

🚨Job alert (in German) We're seeking a student assistant for developmental studies on deliberate ignorance @arc-mpib.bsky.social, @mpib-berlin.bsky.social! Please see the link for details (deadline: January 17). We look forward to receiving your application! www.mpib-berlin.mpg.de/1952948/stud...

People in 26 countries prefer more control over their online environment

 In a conjoint study (N = 11,868), we explored preferences for regulating online environments by examining binary choices between different regulation scenarios. Preprint:https://osf.io/preprints/osf/haqu9

🥁 Exciting news: Our new article on repeated risky choices is out now! How do children and adults make repeated choices when they learn about probabilities from description (i.e., graphical representation)? Not as expected! 👀 Full text: mpib.berlin/PUMtN 1/n

🚨My Tübingen lab has 2 new job openings🚨: Neuroimaging postdoc on real-time fMRI to uncover the role of neural noise on behaviour: devcompsy.org/wp-content/u... Computational modelling postdoc, co-supervised w Peter Dayan: large datasets & mental health: devcompsy.org/wp-content/u...

🚨 Job alert 🚨 I am looking for a PhD and Postdoc to join @arc-mpib.bsky.social and work with me on using LLMs to improve the generalizability in the behavioral and social sciences. The positions are fully funded for three years. Apply by October 13! Thank you for sharing!

New paper with @bernhardspitzer.bsky.social, investigating WM through small eye movements. We found that, even during attempted fixation, gaze patterns not only reflect memory content but also capture its dynamic evolution over time. Available on Nature Human Behaviour www.nature.com/articles/s41...
