Forming global estimates of self-performance from local confidence

Human confidence tracks current performance, but little is known about the formation of ‘global’ self-performance estimates over longer timescales. Here, the authors show that people use local confidence to form global estimates, but tend to underestimate their performance when feedback is absent.

Compulsivity is linked to suboptimal choice variability but unaltered reinforcement learning under uncertainty

Lee et al. find that compulsivity is associated with choice variability under uncertainty, resulting in frequent switching between choice options but no alteration in the ability to learn from the positive or negative outcomes of these choices.

Prefrontal mechanisms combining rewards and beliefs in human decision-making

Optimal decision-making requires integrating expectations about rewards with beliefs about reward contingencies. Here, the authors show that these aspects of reward are encoded in the ventromedial prefrontal cortex then combined in the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex, a process that guides choice biases characteristic of human decision-making.

The online metacognitive control of decisions

How should the mind allocate resources to make good decisions? In the online metacognitive control of decisions model, subjective decision confidence is used as the benefit term of the resource allocation problem to optimize the processing of decision-relevant information.
