Weber’s law can be explained either by a compressive scaling of sensory response with
stimulus magnitude or by a proportional scaling of response variability. These two mechanisms …

Neurons in sensory areas of the neocortex are known to represent information both about
sensory stimuli and behavioral state, but how these 2 disparate signals are integrated across …

Callous-unemotional (CU) traits are characterized by a lack of prosocial emotions, which has
been demonstrated with prosocial behavior paradigms. While shaping our understanding …

The world is overabundant with feature-rich information obscuring the latent causes of
experience. How do people approximate the complexities of the external world with simplified …

We are constantly faced with decisions between alternatives defined by multiple attributes,
necessitating an evaluation and integration of different information sources. Time-varying …

The processes of attention and working memory are conspicuously interlinked, suggesting
that they may involve overlapping neural mechanisms. Working memory (WM) is the ability to …

In this paper, a microelectrode array is introduced and characterized using differential pulse
voltammetry (DPV), amperometry and fast scan cyclic voltammetry with norepinephrine as a …

Accurately judging the quality of one’s estimates is a critical psychological process that
varies across individuals, fluctuates over time, and is highly domain specific. While there are …

The high-dimensional sensory environment we experience is structured by underlying
latent states1, 2. Internal representations of these latent states must generalize to new …

We investigated two-attribute, two-alternative decision-making in a hierarchical neural
network with three layers: an input layer encoding choice alternative attribute values; an …
