Our paper is finally in press! Many thanks to @froemero1, Thomas Summe, @amitaishenhav, and everyone in @ShenhavLab!

Xiamin Leng and colleagues find that framing options in a choice set as inclusive (instead of mutually exclusive) increases the efficiency of choices and reduces feelings of conflict.

Excited to share my first preprint “Dissociable influences of reward and punishment on adaptive cognitive control” looking at how reward and punishment modulate cognitive control allocation in a new temporal cognitive control task!

The main findings are (1) effort costs are necessary for joint RR optimization of drift/threshold (2) Joint RR optimization predicts participants' performance in response to rewards and punishment + more!
