Why does it feel good to be sure? In new work @voalan.bsky.social @andero.bsky.social and I bridge confidence and affect. In perceptual DM, we found a remarkably consistent association between both measures! ↓↓↓ link: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... #PsychSciSky #Neuroscience #Neuroskyence

Metacognitive confidence and affect – two sides of the same coin?

Decision confidence is a prototypical metacognitive representation that is thought to approximate the probability that a decision is correct. The perception of being correct has also been associate...
