🚨 New preprint: What does the research landscape of behavioral reinforcement learning look like 🌍?

We developed an LLM-powered bibliometric analysis to characterize article clusters, investigate their connections, and examine the distribution of topics across the landscape.

What a great group to be a part of! It was an honour to organise this year’s Summer Institute on Bounded Rationality with @fstock.bsky.social and Inken Siebert. Thank you to all participants and speakers for the inspiring week, and to everyone who worked behind the scenes to make it possible.
We wrapped up the 22nd Summer Institute on Bounded Rationality at the Center for Adaptive Rationality at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development (@mpib-berlin.bsky.social).

ECRs from around the world joined us to share their insights on rationality, cognition, and decision-making.

1/n 🆕📄: How do children learn to adapt to different environments when making repeated choices? And what do cognitive immaturity and probability matching have to do with it? Our new article explores how kids & adults differ in probability learning across statistical task structures: mpib.berlin/R3RFy

New episode of 𝐔𝐧𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐁𝐞𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐨𝐫 is live!🎙️

In this episode, I'm joined by @simyciri.bsky.social as we dive into why teens engage in risky behaviors—not out of recklessness, but due to a complex mix of developmental, social, and environmental factors.

People in 26 countries prefer more control over their online environment



In a conjoint study (N = 11,868), we explored preferences for regulating online environments by examining binary choices between different regulation scenarios.

🥁 Exciting news: Our new article on repeated risky choices is out now! How do children and adults make repeated choices when they learn about probabilities from description (i.e., graphical representation)? Not as expected! 👀
