Evidence accumulation models such as the drift diffusion model can reproduce a variety of behavioral data related to the SAT, and their parameters have been linked to neural activities in the brain. However, our understanding of how biological neural networks realize the associated cognitive operations remains incomplete, limiting our ability to unify neurological and computational accounts of the SAT. We address this gap by developing and analyzing a biologically plausible spiking neural network that extends the drift diffusion approach. We apply our model to both perceptual and nonperceptual tasks, investigate several contextual manipulations, and validate model performance using neural and behavioral data. Behaviorally, we find that our model (a) reproduces individual response time distributions; (b) generalizes across experimental contexts, including the number of choice alternatives, speed- or accuracy-emphasis, and task difficulty; and (c) predicts accuracy data, despite being fit only to response time data. Neurally, we show that our model (a) recreates observed patterns of spiking neural activity and (b) captures age-related deficits that are consistent with the behavioral data. More broadly, our model exhibits the SAT across a variety of tasks and contexts and explains how individual differences in speed and accuracy arise from synaptic weights within a spiking neural network. Our work showcases a method for translating mathematical models into functional neural networks and demonstrates that simulating such networks permits analyses and predictions that are outside the scope of purely mathematical models.

However, studies often have focused on isolated saccadic and pursuit eye movements measured with respect to different sensory information (static vs. dynamic targets). Here, we leveraged interindividual differences across a carefully balanced combination of different tasks to demonstrate that critical links in the control of oculomotor behavior were previously missed. We observed correlations in eye movement behavior across tasks, but only when compared with the same sensory information (e.g., pursuit gain and accuracy of saccades to moving targets). Within the same task, the coordination of saccadic and pursuit eye movements was tailored to the strengths of the individual: observers with more accurate saccades to moving targets rely on them more to catch up with moving targets. Our results have profound implications for the theoretical understanding of sensorimotor processing for oculomotor control. They necessitate a reevaluation of previous data used to map brain circuits for saccadic and pursuit eye movements measured with different types of relevant sensory information. Additionally, they underscore the importance of moving beyond average observations to embrace individual differences as a rich source of information. These individual differences not only reveal the strengths and weaknesses of observers. When combined across different tasks, they allow insights about why observers behave differently in a given task.

An important form of unsupervised learning is clustering, which involves determining the groups of distinct objects that belong together. Visual clustering is foundational for ensemble perception, numerosity judgments, spatial problem-solving, understanding information visualizations, and other forms of visual cognition, and yet surprisingly few researchers have directly investigated this human ability. In this study, participants freely clustered arrays that varied in the number of points (10-40) and cluster structure of the stimuli, which was defined based on the statistical distribution of points. We found that clustering is a reliable ability: Participants' clusterings of the same stimulus on two occasions were highly similar. With respect to the objective properties of the clusterings that people produce, points of individual clusters tend to follow a Gaussian distribution. With respect to processing, we identified five visual attributes that characterize the clusters that participants draw-cluster numerosity, area, density, and linearity and also percentage of points on the convex hull. We also discovered evidence for sequential strategies, with some attributes dominating when drawing the initial clusters of a stimulus and others guiding the final clusters. Collectively, these findings offer a comprehensive picture of human visual clustering and serve as a foundation for the development of new models of this important ability.

Understanding what motivates people to eat can provide insights into \"adaptive\" eating behavior, which is especially important due to the increasing prevalence of health-related conditions such as obesity. There has been considerable interest in developing theoretical models and associated constructs that explain individual differences in eating behavior. However, many of these models contain overlapping theories and shared theoretical mechanisms of action. Currently, there is no recognized standard framework that integrates psychological, physiological, and neurobiological theory to help explain human eating behavior. The aim of the current article was to review key psychological theories in relation to energy balance, homeostasis, energy intake, and motivation to eat and begin to develop a comprehensive framework of relevant factors that drive eating behavior. The key findings from this review suggest that eating behavior is conceptualized by elements of dual process models, which include conscious processing (reflective factors) and automatic responses to desires, environmental cues, habits, and associative learning. These processes are mediated by neurobiology and physiological signaling (homeostatic feedback) of energy balance, which is more tolerant of positive than negative energy balances. From a synthesis of available evidence, it is suggested that eating behavior constructs (traits) can be explained by three latent constructs: reflective, reactive, and homeostatic eating. By understanding the interplay between reflective, reactive, and homeostatic processes, interventions can be developed that tailor treatments to target key aspects of eating behavior.

If individuals are incentivized to detect others' group memberships, however, covert signals may not remain covert for very long. We propose a theoretical extension to the literature on covert signaling in which conventionalized identity signals can become destabilized when learned by outgroup individuals to be replaced by the emergence of new signaling conventions. We formalize this idea with both analytical and agent-based modeling of ingroup and outgroup individuals who learn about signals of group membership. Depending on the risk and associated cost of detection by the outgroup, the model yields three dynamic classes: saturation, where all identity signals become stable conventions and never go extinct; cycling, in which new signals emerge to replace old ones as they are learned by the outgroup; and suppression, in which informative identity signals never emerge. Our analysis has implications for understanding identity signaling, the emergence of conventions, coded speech, and the ebb and flow of fashion cycles.

Yet, existing theories of norm emergence typically focus either on why certain norms arise (substantive properties) or on how they spread and persist (dynamical properties), often making conflicting assumptions. Here, we propose a unified account in which norms prescribing how one ought to act emerge naturally from the fundamental algorithms that guide learning-whether in social or nonsocial settings. Our account builds on recent advances in decision making and emotion research that have highlighted \"actor-critic\" models as a core mechanism of learning from feedback. We extend this mechanism to social settings by assuming that it is not only we who critique our actions; others critique our actions as well. By simulating this interindividual form of learning, we show that it uniquely produces group behavior that exhibits both substantive and dynamical properties of real-world social norms, including prosociality, ingroup bias, stickiness, S-shaped curves, and local conformity/global diversity. Our framework thus offers a uniquely parsimonious way to bridge the gap between individual learning and group behavior.

What enables this capacity to sustain controversial beliefs amid societal disagreement? To answer this question, we connect insights across the social sciences to develop the paths to persistence model (PPM). The PPM outlines four causes of persistence amid societal dissent: People may perceive disagreeing others as more ignorant, biased, or unintelligent than themselves or those who agree (informational path), consider the issue to be subjective or unknowable (ontological path), expect changing their beliefs to have bad social or personal consequences (functional path), or fail to deploy the cognitive resources to update their beliefs (computational). We explain how the PPM integrates previous theories across disciplines into interacting \"paths\" that jointly explain persistence. We then present a preregistered study with a sample quota-matched to the U.S. census on race and sex (N = 1,250) investigating responses to societal disagreement on 96 issues spanning science, politics, morality, and religion. We find that most participants persist in their beliefs amid controversy-even when they learn that they vastly underestimated the extent of societal dissent. Moreover, we find that the paths jointly predict whether people persist and are associated with important social outcomes, such as people's willingness to befriend disagreeing others. Four additional preregistered open- and close-ended studies (N = 1,921) support these findings and our theoretical model.
