We were delighted to welcome Prof. Dr. Christian Schlenstedt from Medical School Hamburg to our #DHPRlab meeting. He talked about interdisciplinary considerations to enhance mobility in people with Parkinson’s disease. Many thanks for your time, insights, and the inspiring discussion!🙏

Yesterday, we got together for our 3rd DHPRL Garden Party to celebrate another great semester.🌿☀️ A huge thank you to all our colleagues and guests who joined us. We were enjoying ourselves so much that we completely forgot to take a group photo... 🥲 Already looking forward to the next one! 🤩

We had the pleasure of welcoming Prof. Dr. Julia Schüler from University of Konstanz to our #DHPRlab meeting. She talked about the (un)ease of effort: A motivational perspective on predictors and consequences. Thank you for taking the time and inspiring discussions! 🙏

End of a (relatively brief) era in our interim space. 📦 Our team spent today moving our setup into a new, much improved space. We can't wait to get the new lab up. Wanna see it? Very soon! 🔑

New #DHPRLab preprint by @lukas-hack.bsky.social together with @katjarewitz.bsky.social, Silas Wagner, and @wanjawolff.bsky.social 🙌🏼 Check out Lukas’s post below, in case you're interested! ⬇️

📣Preprint: More effort, more variability. We formally tested underlying assumptions of effort-performance coupling. ↪️Performance increases non-linearly & becomes more variable at higher effort levels. 📖@ osf.io/preprints/ps... w/ @katjarewitz.bsky.social, @SilasWagner & @wanjawolff.bsky.social

We had the pleasure of welcoming Dr. Kerstin Brinkmann from University of Geneva to our #DHPRlab meeting. She talked about explicit and implicit motives and their impact on cognitive and physical effort. Thank you for taking the time and inspiring discussions! 🙏

Effort ≠ performance 🎯 At the Integrating Effort symposium @ASP, I showed that perceived effort maps non-linearly onto performance. Equal increases in prescribed effort produce disproportionately large increases in performance, likely because of compressed number representation and motor noise 🔢💪

I really enjoyed presenting preliminary findings from our study on the effects of concurrent physical effort on explore-exploit behavior at this year's asp conference in Heidelberg 🚴🏀 Already looking forward to next year 🙃

Had a great time presenting at asp conference in Heidelberg! We dove into how perceived time and effort costs interact in movement-related decisions, and which factors matter most when studying them together. Wanna know more? 👉🏼 doi.org/10.31234/osf...

Really happy to share that my first PhD preprint is finally out!🥳 We suggest that time and effort should be studied together as a shared experiential cost w/@bcheval.bsky.social, @corimartarelli.bsky.social, Dr. Maltagliati, Dr. Chastin, and @wanjawolff.bsky.social Curious?👇 doi.org/10.31234/osf...

We are excited to welcome Dr. Kristina Bruemmer to our team as a senior researcher and lecturer! 🎉

We are excited to welcome our new intern, Miriana Palmero! 🎉

We had the pleasure of welcoming Dr. Robert Bielitzki from from University of Hamburg to our #DHPRlab meeting.   He talked about psychophysiological responses to blood flow restricted exercise.   Thank you for taking the time and inspiring discussions! 🙏

Interested in information search? 👀🔍 Make sure to check out our latest theory explaining how people search for information; now out in Psychological Review! @sgluth.bsky.social @jordantdeakin.bsky.social and Jörg Rieskamp

Sebastian Gluth@sgluth.bsky.social · 5mo ago

How do people search for information to make efficient decisions? Our new theory, now out in Psychological Review, suggests that an efficient search rule is (at the core of) the answer. And eye-tracking data support our theory. Check out here (it's open access): psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/202...

A snippet of this week's episode of The Sport Psych Show with Katja Rewitz. Katja and I speak about a fascinating paper she led which examines the explore-exploit framework related to decision making in sport and exercise. Listen to here buff.ly/2kubwcI

We had the pleasure of welcoming Dr. Lorenz Assländer (Uni Konstanz) to our #DHPRlab meeting. He spoke about the cybernetics of human balance -how the nervous system integrates sensory cues to maintain stability- and about Augmented Visual Orientation Cues technology. Thank you, @cybal.bsky.social🙏

I had such a great time on this episode! 🤩 I really enjoyed taking the explore-exploit trade-off beyond theory and discussing its relevance for athletes, coaches, and performance in real sport settings. 🏀🏌️‍♀️🏃‍♀️ Thanks so much for having me @danabrahamspsych.bsky.social

Dan Abrahams@danabrahamspsych.bsky.social · 6mo ago

New episode of The Sport Psych Show! On this week's episode "Exploit or Explore: Decision Making in Sport" I speak with University of Hamburg PhD student Katja Rewitz. Katja's research focuses on human sensations and their influence on decision-making and performance behaviour

New preprint 📢 w/ @wanjawolff.bsky.social & @mbieleke.bsky.social we tracked boredom during a cycling task. Perceived effort generally increased over time – boredom didn't. Boredom varied strongly across individuals, and its dynamics predicted persistence beyond effort 📖 osf.io/preprints/ps...

Not so average: Heterogenous boredom dynamics during an incremental physical effort task: https://osf.io/79ezb

We had the pleasure of welcoming Prof. Dr. Erik Bijleveld from Radboud University to our #DHPRlab meeting. He talked about effort and fatigue, when and why people get fatigued, and their relation to decision-making. Thank you for taking the time and inspiring discussions! 🙏 @erikbij.bsky.social

AI and LLMs trend towards sameness of expression - it might just make us all more boring! www.psychologytoday.com/ca/blog/the-...

Is AI Making Us Boring?

AI works by predicting the most likely next thing, but in doing so, it risks becoming predictable and monotonous—and so do we if we rely too much on the tool.

Yesterday, we had the pleasure of welcoming Prof. Dr. Amitai Shenhav from UC Berkeley to our #DHPRlab meeting. He told us about neural and computational mechanisms of motivation, affect, and decision-making Thank you for taking the time and for the really engaging discussions @ashenhav.bsky.social🙏

Another great joint event with @cmdn-lab.bsky.social before the winter break! It was wonderful to visit each other’s labs again and enjoy a fun evening together ✨ Already looking forward to the next one!

Had an amazing time at the #ISSP conference in Hong Kong 🌆 Thanks for joining the hitchhike journey through the #effort research universe. Interested, check our preprint together w/ @wanjawolff.bsky.social & @israelhalperin.bsky.social ➡️ osf.io/preprints/ps...

I really enjoyed talking about investigating dynamic decision strategies in sports using the explore-exploit framework at #ISSP in Hong Kong. If you're interested in our recently published work on this topic ➡️ doi.org/10.1016/j.ps...

Truly enjoyed sharing some empirical data on one of our key points at #ISSP in Hong Kong: People minimize effort & especially time costs for their exercise goals, even when they know it’s not the most effective way! w/ @corimartarelli.bsky.social, @mbieleke.bsky.social, and @wanjawolff.bsky.social

A “Nutri-Score". But for the lab 😁 Had a blast presenting our thoughts on optimal lab technology for complex questions at #ISSP in Hong Kong. Interested? Check out our @cmdn-lab.bsky.social & @dhprlab.bsky.social preprint w/ @sgluth.bsky.social & Johannes Keyser: osf.io/preprints/ps...

#DHPRLab in the ISSP 16th World Congress in Hong Kong! Curious about our talks? Stay tuned 🙌🏼😌 @wanjawolff.bsky.social @senaozayotgonbayar.bsky.social @katjarewitz.bsky.social @lukas-hack.bsky.social Together w/ @corimartarelli.bsky.social, @mbieleke.bsky.social, and Darias Holgado.

Here we delve into... Read this phrase before? When everything you read starts to blur toghether, blame the LLM 😜 With @wanjawolff.bsky.social , we discuss why this happens, how it increases boredom at scale, and why it becomes increasingly hard to escape. Interested? Delve into it below ⬇️
