New preprint! Last year we showed humans adapt attention in a dimension-specific way when multiple things compete for attention. Now we read out the neural dynamics of this adaptation. doi.org/10.1101/2025.11.16.688701 w/ @mikefreund.bsky.social @theazalabak.bsky.social @wouterkool.bsky.social

Check out @theazalabak.bsky.social's cool new paper on model-based planning during foraging. She's applying for grad school this season, so keep your eyes out!

How do people decide whether to stay with a good thing or leave in search of something better? In her new paper, @theazalabak.bsky.social explores how model-based planning guides foraging decisions in structured environments. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

My first, first-author paper on model-based planning in structured foraging environments is out now in Cognition!

Three new CDML publications to start off 2025! First up: research on multidimensional control from @davideghez.bsky.social in @naturehumbehav.bsky.social! Across three behavioral experiments and with computational modeling, Davide shows that people adapt control in a distractor-specific fashion.

Distractor-specific control adaptation in multidimensional environments - Nature Human Behaviour

Gheza and Kool show that, in multidimensional environments, people allocate attention to individual distractors on the basis of their interference with the current task. They develop a neural model th...

My group, the Control and Decision Making Lab, is at Psychonomics _and_ SJDM this year! Members of our lab will present two talks and two posters on Friday at Psychonomics, and we have two more posters at SJDM on Sunday. Come say hi! #psynom24

Getting ready to go present at #psynom23!! Come check out our lab’s cool new work!

My team and I are Psychonomics! I haven't been at conferences in a long time, so I'd love to say hi and show you the cool research my team has been up to. We have four posters on four different research projects involving control and decision making. Details in the pics. #psychscisky #psynom23
