How much of a risk are LLM-generated bots for online behavioral experiments? We present results of an entirely natural language prompt-generated agent, capable of absolving any of the 26 experiments we tested it on. Most tasks are passed with data that can pass as human osf.io/preprints/ps... (1/)

So much amazing work presented today & tomorrow @ #psynom24 by: Noah Rischert, @sjiang.bsky.social, (obviously) Klaus Oberauer, @chenyuli.bsky.social, @philippmusfeld.bsky.social, @ruhibhanap.bsky.social (x2), Isabel Courage, @joschadutli.bsky.social, and @carohautekiet.bsky.social

The Zurich Cognition Lab (Oberauer, Bartsch, and Frischkorn) is attending Psychonomics 2024 and you are in for A LOT of treats! If you are in New York, make sure to stop by our talks and posters and discuss with us (more details in the thread) #psynom24

If you're interested in how drift-diffusion modelling can help us better understand dual tasking, come see @sjiang.bsky.social's poster in today's lunch session! #psynom24

Looking forward to serving on this exciting committee for students and postdocs @psychonomicsociety.bsky.social 💛💛🙌🙌

New paper alert! 🙌 In our new replication study led by @sjiang.bsky.social, we found no effect of transcranial direct current stimulation on visual working memory! Out in Communications Psychology: www.nature.com/articles/s44... #workingmemory

TDCS over PPC or DLPFC does not improve visual working memory capacity - Communications Psychology

In contrast to recent findings, a replication study shows no effect of transcranial direct current stimulation on visual working memory.

👀 So, this happened! 😱 💃20 months and more than 500 participants recruited across 3 sites, in 3 languages, we officially completed data collection in our ORA ESRC/DFG/SSHRC processing speed training study (gtr.ukri.org/projects?ref... )!!! 🎉🥂🎉 Let the analyses begin 😍😍😍

We reviewed three types of cognitve interventions which may mitigate age-related cognitive decline. If you are interested in cognitive training, leisure activities and non-invasive brain stimulation, check our new paper 📖
