Lukasz Walasek Antonio Verdejo-García, Jakob Hohwy and I recently published an article in Decision on the relationships between time preferences, impulsivity, and self-control. We were invited by the APA to write a non-technical snippet about it here: link.growkudos.com/1ebd2qn4x6o

Excited to share the materials for our course on open LLMs for science of science research Zak Hussain and I offered at the recent meeting of European Network for the Science of Science at Universität München. github.com/zak-Hussain/LL…

LLM agents behave unlike humans in standard experimental finance (bubble) experiments.

Why do people act randomly when playing games? And why do their actions depend on the context? An extended variational autoencoder models the cognitive processes that govern human decisions in games: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… With Guy Aridor and Mike Woodford.

🚨 New paper 🚨 Out in Communications Psychology: "Manipulating attention facilitates cooperation" with Claire Lugrin and Christian Ruff We use gaze data and display manipulations in one-shot Prisoner's Dilemma games and find that these manipulations can drive choices through attention 👇

Submissions for our 2025 Economic Science Association European Meeting are now open! Send in your abstract by May 5 and join us in September in Brno Masarykova univerzita esa2025.econ.muni.cz

🚨Out today in PNAS PNASNews🚨 pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… Why do people overestimate the size of politically relevant groups (immigrant, LGBTQ, Jewish) and quantities (% of budget spent on foreign aid, % of refugees that are criminals)? We analyze 100k estimates to find out🧵👇

We are looking for two PhD students at our institute in Munich. Both postions are open-topic, so anything between cognitive science and machine learning is possible. More information: hcai-munich.com/PhDHCAI.pdf Feel free to share broadly!

Announcing the summer school on "Cognitive Foundations of Decision-Making" to be held from June 30 to July 4, 2025, in Ghent, Belgium. For information and the application pprocedures, see rislab.net/summer-school-…

This meta-analysis of 79 RCTs by Hoppen et al found that social comparison is an effective behaviour change technique for pro-environmental-, health-, performance-, and service-related behaviours. nature.com/articles/s4156…

Excited to share a new Trends in Cognitive Sciences paper that I had the pleasure to be a part of. This is an interdisciplinary perspective on the dynamics of cognitive costs, namely when these costs occur and how they impact our decisions. #neuroeconomics sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Completely nonsensical politicization of scientistics identifying and correcting problems in science. - Gino's research was not "promoting progressive ideas" - The problems were not found by "bloggers," but by leading researchers/faculty in the same scientific discipline.

New short-form preprint in which we use Centaur to identify gaps in interpretable cognitive models and revise them accordingly using Qwen3 -- fully automated and without a human-in-the-loop. arxiv.org/abs/2505.17661

In this article, Du & Haith show that behavior can become habitual in two different ways, involving response initiation and response preparation, respectively nature.com/articles/s4156…
