Our new preprint is out! We show that pupil-linked arousal encodes uncertainty-weighted prediction errors to learn under state uncertainty 🎉 osf.io/preprints/psya… Many thanks to Tobi Donner Donner Lab, Radek Cichy, Nico Schuck, Carsten Finke and Rasmus Bruckner !!

How does uncertainty shape learning? Our latest preprint investigates how pupil-linked arousal interacts with prediction errors in uncertain environments. With Prashanti Ganesh Donner Lab Radek Cichy Nico Schuck Carsten Finke and me

In our new Communications Psychology review, we explore how humans adjust learning to different types of uncertainty, why biases arise, and what this reveals about learning and psychiatric conditions. 📖 Read more: nature.com/articles/s4427… With Nassar Lab & Hauke Heekeren
