Determining the psychological, computational, and neural bases of confidence and
uncertainty holds promise for understanding foundational aspects of human metacognition …

Engaging in metacognition (evaluating, controlling, and representing cognitive states) is
paramount for efficient behaviour. In this Review, we examine different types of cognitive …

Foundational work in the psychology of metacognition identified a distinction between
metacognitive knowledge (stable beliefs about one's capacities) and metacognitive …

Human behaviours are guided by how confident we feel in our abilities. When confidence
does not reflect objective performance, this can impact critical adaptive functions and impair …

How can choice, confidence, and response times be modeled simultaneously? Here, we
propose the new dynamical weighted evidence and visibility (dynWEV) model, an extension …

Humans have the metacognitive ability to assess the accuracy of their decisions via
confidence judgments. Several computational models of confidence have been developed …

Abstract Meta-d′/d′ has become the quasi-gold standard to quantify metacognitive
efficiency because meta-d′/d′ was developed to control for discrimination performance …

Bayesian models of the mind suggest that we estimate the reliability or “precision” of
incoming sensory signals to guide perceptual inference and to construct feelings of …

Studying subjective experience is hard. We believe that pain is not identical to nociception,
nor pleasure a computational reward signal, nor fear the activation of “threat circuitry” …
