Happy to share our book chapter on sequential sampling models (SSMs) in economic choice, with @forcesofhabit and @taroyang3302, forthcoming in Neuroeconomics: Core Topics and Current Directions. We review work unraveling the dynamics of economic choice. osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/4w…

Why do more numerate people tend to make better decisions under risk?
My ✨ new paper in @SciReports ✨ offers an explanation in terms of pre-decisional information search and processing, using computational modeling.

Very much looking forward to the next chapter of @JCRNEWS with @OlegUrminsky at the helm!

my roman empire is wondering which employee at four seasons total landscaping answered the phone and did not inform the trump campaign that they probably meant to call the four seasons hotel, thus creating an unrivaled hilarious historical moment.
Do you use cognitive/computational modeling in your research? Are you a behavioral marketing professor/postdoc/PhD student? Want to have (free) drinks with the small group of women that can answer yes to both of those questions? Join us next week at ACR! DM us if interested!

There are few things better to spend 3 hours on than helping the next generation of psychology PhDs succeed!! You’ll procrastinate more than that this week alone and you know it 😉
TL;DR: Editing with ASFP is efficient, effective, fun, & meaningful.
More info for editors below!
🕛THREE HOURS🕒
...is the amount of time that we ask of editors!
You decide if you want to give more than that.
Read more about what it means to edit with ASFP:
asfp.io/s/Summary-for-ASFP-2…
Then complete this brief editor interest form: forms.gle/R8Lb1VE1UedMStvG6
ALT Editing is easy with ASFP. Worried about time? Editing takes as little as 3 hours! One hour of required training (less for returning editors). Edit the minimum number of statements (4). Spend 30 minutes per statement (we provide resources to help you with this goal). Unsure about providing feedback? We provide training, rubrics and templates to help you give high-level, constructive feedback. Stuck on a statement? We offer live-editing support during the 5-day edit-a-thon via Zoom and email.

Excited to share a new paper in @ScienceAdvances with colleagues from Bocconi. We offer a new way to estimate DDMs when drift rate is based on differences in stimulus magnitude, e.g. value. The method is better than logit and much faster than other DDMs.

You know you travel a lot when you…
(1) know EXACTLY how early you have to get to the airport to not be anxious
(2) have seen all movies you want to see on the IFE
(3) don’t have to ask for the wifi password
(4) use the printers in airport lounges way more than any other printer
One of the best parts of having a common name is that I get to (1) hear about the cool research that some other Stephanie Smith is doing and (2) use phrases like “good luck with the bats/dinosaurs/mutant mice!”
This is such a clever use of response times, with clear real-world implications for bargaining/negotiation. So happy to see this published, @arkadykonovalov and @KrajbichLab!

I consider myself very lucky to have @alexoimas as a colleague. On top of being an incredible researcher, he’s also way cooler than I’ll ever be… Even though he wants to take all of our shared RA for himself. (That’s a hard no from me.)
Congrats to @alexoimas who is officially a tenured member of the @ChicagoBooth faculty!! And congrats to us for having such an amazing guy in the Behavioral Science group!
Retweeting not (only) for the amazing Office reference in his interview, but because I’m so proud of my friend. Well done, @fshaddy!!!
Appreciate our amazing @uclaanderson students for nominating me this year!

And with that… my first class (ever) has come to a close, and I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better group of students to get me through my first time teaching.

Huge shoutout to @KrajbichLab for supporting my interest in surrogate decision making.
The answer affects financial planners, caregivers, and many other surrogate decision makers.
