🚨 New preprint: What does the research landscape of behavioral reinforcement learning look like 🌍? We developed an LLM-powered bibliometric analysis to characterize article clusters, investigate their connections, and examine the distribution of topics across the landscape. osf.io/6c2va_v1

🥁 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

🚨New paper from ARC🚨 Why is there a difference in risk-taking between young people and older people? ARC's Florian Bolenz @bolenz.bsky.social examined age differences in risky decision-making and published a paper in PLoS Computational Biology. Check Florian's thread and paper for further details!

👵Why do people make different economic decisions as they age? 💡In a new publication in @plos.bsky.social Plos Computational Biology, we present a study that explores how age differences in decision making are a consequence of selecting different strategies. journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol...

Join us in lovely Würzburg🌳🏰🍷🚣‍♀️♥️ -- There are projects on development/psychopathology in our lab, but also other very interesting projects on approach and avoidance in mice🐭and humans👯‍♂️within the fantastic research environment the RTG offers

10 more days to submit your abstracts on process-tracing research to join us for EGPROC in Berlin this summer!

The call for abstracts is now published. Submit your abstracts by April 28! www.mpib-berlin.mpg.de/research/res...

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS: If you use process-tracing methods (like eye-tracking 👀, neuroimaging 🧠, verbal protocols 🗣️, process models 🤖...) to study human behavior and cognition, join us for EGPROC in Berlin and submit your abstract by April 28! www.mpib-berlin.mpg.de/research/res...

Join us at this year's EADM summer school at the MPI for Human Development, Sep 9-13, with keynotes from @melaniemitchell.bsky.social, @iyadrahwan.bsky.social, Gaël Le Mens, @chiaralongoni.bsky.social and talks from Laura Weidinger, @jasonburton.bsky.social, @zoepurcell.bsky.social, and Nils Köbis!

SAVE THE DATE! We are bringing EGPROC to Berlin (August 1-2, 2024). This interdisciplinary conference brings together researchers who use various processes-tracing methods to study decision making. More info coming soon...

Check out our new perspectives paper! We propose that older adults' impairments in complex decision making are due to a diminished representation of the task structure journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...
