I'm wondering, do you use chatgpt or other ai tools at all? Or do you use them in a "critical way"?

Participants enhanced or inhibited their habitual responses based on whether they were congruent or incongruent with goal-directed behavior.
Using drift-diffusion modeling, we found that habitual and goal-directed response tendencies interact on the level of evidence accumulation (drift-rate).

We discovered that the influence of a habit isn’t static, it depends on the number of repetitions of an action sequence.
🧠 Approximately 60% of participants adaptively adjusted their habitual responses according to the task context.

3/4 Findings suggest that chronic DBS can modulate this cognitive function over time. Results further hint at a role of the human NAcc region in maintaining our preferences over time as stimulation in this motivational hub can reshape preferences believed to rely on this circuit.

2/4 While short-term stability remains, long-term (6 months) reliability is disrupted. Temporal discounting (choosing between near and distant rewards) is relatively stable in humans and extreme patterns of discounting at least correlate with various mental disorders.
