Much prior work uses difference scores, contrasting performance between incongruent and congruent trials to index conflict suppression ability, but recent work demonstrates these scores exhibit poor psychometric properties. Formal cognitive process models suggest that individual differences in conflict suppression are driven by task-general processes, as opposed to processes specialized for conflict. However, this prior work separately models cognitive process parameters and their covariation, which fails to adequately account for measurement error. Here, we model distinct mechanisms of conflict task performance and their covariance simultaneously using hierarchical Bayesian joint modeling methods for the first time which improves individual estimation and accounts for error. We fit the conflict linear ballistic accumulator model (LBA) to two large datasets containing multiple conflict tasks and test-retest sessions, and an additional large dataset containing a conflict task and simple perceptual decision-making task. First, within conflict tasks, we found moderate test-retest reliability for both conflict-specific processing mechanisms, and, to a larger degree, task-general mechanisms. Second, task-general, but not conflict-specific, mechanisms were correlated across different conflict tasks.

Using a large recognition memory dataset with electroencephalography (EEG) recordings (<i>n</i> = 132), we systematically linked drift rate to individual trials using exogenous experimental factors-such as word frequency and study-test lag-along with endogenous factors using EEG data.

Participants viewed one to six colored items, recalled the color of a cued target using a color wheel, and then identified the target color from two options in a recognition task. We used continuous-outcome and two-choice EZ diffusion models to analyze the speed and accuracy of the two decisions. The models provided estimates of the latent cognitive parameters, drift rate and boundary separation, with the former providing measures of the memory strengths in the two decisions. We found significant correlations in both drift rate and boundary separation for the two decisions, indicating that continuous recall and two-choice recognition tasks engage similar memory and decision processes. Removing responses within the highly inaccurate 'heavy tails' of the recall distribution reduced, rather than increased, drift rate correlations - especially in the six item condition - implying that the heavy tails of the response distribution represent meaningful low-precision memory traces rather than guesses. Simulations showed that only a small fraction of the heavy tailed memory trace could be accounted for by swap errors.

While the neural substrates of Gestalt principles are thought to involve feedback mechanisms in the brain, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) rely on feedforward architectures. Despite this, we focus on the functional comparison-specifically, object recognition-rather than the underlying mechanisms. We investigate whether CNNs can parallel the human ability to perform Closure. Exploring this crucial visual skill in neural networks can highlight their (dis)similarity to human vision. Recent studies have examined the Closure effect in neural networks, but typically focus on a limited selection of CNNs and yield divergent findings. To address these gaps, we present a systematic framework to investigate Closure. We introduce well-curated datasets designed to test for Closure effects, including both modal and amodal completion. We then conduct experiments on nine CNNs employing different measurements. Our comprehensive analysis reveals that VGG16 and DenseNet-121 exhibit the Closure effect, while other CNNs show variable results.

Such evaluations may be crucial for long-term outcomes, such as harmonious marriage, confident leadership and indeed mental health. Powerful evaluations occur during interactions, where people can support or let each other down. Thus, we implemented an interactive decision-making game, wherein two real-life participants explicitly evaluated themselves and their play-partner while playing an ecologically framed, probabilistic, iterated prisoner's dilemma. To separate preferences from abilities, participants did not interact with the other directly, but instructed a computer avatar on how to play on their behalf. We tested a range of computational models of participants' person-evaluations. In some, self-evaluation relied on regret or satisfaction regarding one's decisions. However, the winning models relied directly on observed gains and losses. Here, evaluation of the self was proportional to how much one's partner benefited, and vice versa. We found a marked self-positivity bias, which was most prominent in dyads where both partners often defected. Between participants, a self-positivity bias was explained by a reduced weight of one's partner's benefits onto self-evaluation. This suggests that the negative outcomes claimed to attract defensive, external attribution by attribution theorists are one's partner's poor outcomes. Further analysis suggested that a reduced sensitivity to others' outcomes was associated with reduced earnings for the self, hinting at a functional role for person-evaluations in decision-making. Thus, we introduce a novel computational model that provides a concise account of self-serving bias in evaluations, as observed during risky dyadic interactions.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s42113-025-00250-y.</p>","PeriodicalId":72660,"journal":{"name":"Computational brain & behavior","volume":"9 1","pages":"91-103"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13035595/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147596486","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Participants were tasked to move a cursor from start to target locations in a grid world, using a standard keyboard. Notably, the specific keys were arbitrarily mapped to a movement rule resembling the Knight chess piece. In Experiment 1, we showed the learning of this mapping in the absence of planning, led to significant improvements in the task when presented with sequential decisions at a later stage. Computational modeling analysis revealed that such improvements resulted from an increased learning rate about the state transitions of the motor mapping, which also resulted in more flexible planning from trial to trial (less perseveration or habitual responses). In Experiment 2, we showed that incorporating mapping learning into the planning process, allows us to capture (1) differential task improvements for distinct planning horizons and (2) overall lower performance for longer horizons. Additionally, model analysis suggested that participants may limit their search to three steps ahead.

Next, we asked whether there might be considerably more information about encoding on single trials beyond these statistically robust, regular signals. Indeed, multivariate classifiers (LDA and SVM), incorporating signal-features beyond the FRN and FMT, predicted learning more substantially and exceeded previous performance on episodic recognition using the same basic approach (Chakravarty et al., <i>Journal of Neurophysiology,</i> <i>124</i>(6), 2060-2075, 2020).
