New preprint from Yining Ding (@liliand.bsky.social)! "Temporal order memory in naturalistic events is scaffolded by semantic knowledge and hierarchical event structure" osf.io/preprints/ps...

Second, Cathy @cathyzhang.bsky.social has developed a new framework to infer mind wandering (lapses of attention) from behavior. She combines the GLM-HMMs from @jpillowtime.bsky.social's group with a parametric version of the Sustained Attention to Response Task (SART). osf.io/preprints/ps...

Gheza & Kool show that, in multidimensional environments, people allocate attention to individual distractors based on their interference with the current task. A neural model supports these findings and suggests revising cognitive control theories. https://go.nature.co...

@evdbussc.bsky.social made a nice cognitive control one: go.bsky.app/R28hGhN

#psynom24 is coming up. On Fri 22nd I will be talking about cognitive control with multiple distractors, including ↓ Hold your amphibians!

The Braver, Bugg, and Kool labs at WashU are looking to hire a postdoctoral researcher for an ONR-funded project on the cognitive neuroscience of attentional control. Please share! A detailed ad can be found here: cdmlab.wustl.edu/docs/MURI_po...

Hello amazing people! My first ever poster presentation is happening on Friday. Please come and chat!

If you are at #SfN23, go check out the awesome work that Ata Karagoz @atabk.bsky.social is doing with me and Zach Reagh @zreagh.bsky.social! He uses behavioral (!) and neural RSA to measure the construction of cognitive maps for planning.

I'm an advisor for Applied Math undergrads with an application area in Psychology. It turns out that they are interested in math and psych, but often don't realize that there is any overlap between the two! So I put together a short reading list: gershmanlab.com/docs/Mathema...

Gave my first ever lecture in a big scary lecture hall 🎤 It sure felt different to prepare your own slides than to lead review sessions for just 40 people.
