Adaptive Engagement of Cognitive Control in Context-Dependent Decision Making.
Many decisions require a context-dependent mapping from sensory evidence to action. The capacity for flexible information processing of this sort is thought to depend on a cognitive control system in frontoparietal cortex, but the costs and limitations of control entail that its engagement should be minimized. Here, we show that humans reduce demands on control by exploiting statistical structu...
متن کاملAdaptive response priors in context-dependent decision-making
Context (such as our location or current goal) informs everyday decisions, both by predicting stimuli and determining relevant responses. How do we develop priors that are general enough to apply in various contexts yet specific enough to maximize reward in a given context? We investigated this using the AX-CPT, a task in which a cue determines which button to press for a probe that appears sec...
متن کاملThe role of consciousness in cognitive control and decision making
Here we review studies on the complexity and strength of unconscious information processing. We focus on empirical evidence that relates awareness of information to cognitive control processes (e.g., response inhibition, conflict resolution, and task-switching), the life-time of information maintenance (e.g., working memory) and the possibility to integrate multiple pieces of information across...
متن کاملContext Proceduralization in Decision Making
Although it seems obvious that decision making is a contextual task, papers dealing with decision making tackle rarely the problem of contextual information management. After a brief presentation of our view on context, we examine the contextual dimension of decision making. Then we explain our views about the acquisition of contextual data and the construction of a reasoning framework appropri...
متن کاملValue-based attentional capture influences context-dependent decision-making.
Normative theories posit that value-based decision-making is context independent. However, decisions between two high-value options can be suboptimally biased by the introduction of a third low-value option. This context-dependent modulation is consistent with the divisive normalization of the value of each stimulus by the total value of all stimuli. In addition, an independent line of research...
