The natural frequency facilitation effect describes the finding that people are better able to
solve descriptive Bayesian inference tasks when represented as joint frequencies obtained …

Trust profoundly shapes organisational, group, and dyadic outcomes. Reflecting its
importance, a substantial and growing body of scholarship has investigated the topic of trust …

In psychology research studies, the goals of the experimenter and the goals of the
participants often do not align. Researchers are interested in having participants who take …

Research suggests that high frequency gambling is a component of the “generality of
deviance”, which describes the observation that various forms of risky and antisocial …

Delay discounting—preference for immediate, smaller rewards over distal, larger rewards—
has been argued to be part of the “generality of deviance”, which describes the co …

Bayesian reasoning, defined here as the updating of a posterior probability following new
information, has historically been problematic for humans. Classic psychology experiments …

Mental simulation of future scenarios is hypothesized to affect future behavior, but a large
and inconsistent literature means it is unclear whether, and under what conditions, mental …

It is common practice for psychology researchers to recruit their sample of participants from
the undergraduate student population. Participants are typically compensated with partial …

Many studies use multiexperiment designs where experiments are carried out at different
times of semester. When comparing between experiments, the data may be confounded by …

Bayesian reasoning is ubiquitous in everyday life. However, how people perform in formal
Bayesian reasoning tasks depends on both how the task is presented and individual …
