Wise et al. characterize the computational mechanisms that enable humans to gain reward and avoid danger in the presence of other agents, demonstrating that these abilities rely on the ability to...

What happens when our stream of consciousness turns inward, towards the body? Our new fMRI study of 536 individuals finds that 'body-wandering' is associated with distinct patterns of brain connectivity, physiology, affect, and mental health: https://t.co/wepZGVCMXl

In this preprint we refine the method and describe it in detail. Essentially, we train Lasso-regularised regression models to predict sum scores from individual items. The result is a short scale with a set of weights to optimally predict true sum scores. 3/n

A few years ago I wanted to replicate work deriving transdiagnostic factors from many questionnaires. However, this was A) a lot of questions for participants, and B) expensive Instead I tried to come up with a way to reduce the number of items https://t.co/Gw2AnuJyII 2/n

Happy to share our latest publication, out now in @CognitionJourn, where we find that metacognitive self-beliefs are updated in a suprisingly domain-specific manner. https://t.co/iWCCDUwXwW
