At the CMDN Lab (@uni-hamburg.de), we study decision-making and how it is influenced by attention, learning and memory.

PI: @sgluth.bsky.social

Fascinating session at our research colloquium yesterday! 🧠
Sebastian Olschewski unpacked how complexity shapes the way we make risky decisions. Valuable discussions during individual meetings and over a delicious dinner!

🧠 Hyperscanning in action!
With the Gläscher Lab @isnlab.bsky.social, @mrugsen.bsky.social investigates how 2 brains interact during real-time decision making. Using simultaneous EEG, we explore how people learn each other's preferences and intentions — one offer, one choice, one signal at a time.

#preprint 📢

Effort usually boosts performance - but not always. We discuss 4 domain-general factors that modulate effort-performance (de)coupling: osf.io/preprints/ps...

TL;DR: A framework on when and why effort-performance links appear to change across domains, timescales & measures.

How can we increase eco-friendly choices? 🌱 Our new preprint with @barbaraoberbauer.bsky.social , Ulf Hahnel & @sgluth.bsky.social reveals the mechanisms through which consumer-friendly attribute displays boost ecological decisions

🥐 When we’re hungry, we pay more attention to taste than health, literally.

Eye-tracking and modelling show hunger shifts our focus toward calorie-rich foods and away from nutrition info.
Hungry eyes
Humans focus less on nutritional information and more on how appetizing a food looks when deciding what to eat while hungry.

This week we had another great guest in our #DHPRLab meeting. 🥳

@sgluth.bsky.social from @cmdn-lab.bsky.social took the time to tell us all about computational modeling of decision making. It was a pleasure having you, thank you so much for visiting. ☺️

Amazing sunny team event with our lab today! ☀️ We tackled an escape room aboard the historic ship Rickmer Rickmers - nothing like solving puzzles surrounded by maritime history ⚓🧩 So lovely bonding outside the lab and putting our problem-solving skills to work in completely new settings! 🤓

Excited to see our study on the Tagesschau 🎉
Note: We conducted a laboratory experiment, meaning that the application to real life grocery shopping is limited. Our findings shed light on the cognitive mechanisms that underly food choice under hunger. Also, we do not appeal to politics or industry.

Interested in the mechanisms underlying distractor effects? Make sure to check out the paper of our postdoc @maryamtohidi.bsky.social in which she sheds light on how and when the distractor effect emerges in value-based and multialternative choice paradigms.
Thrilled to share my first post here with something I’m truly proud of; My PhD paper is finally out in @commspsychol.bsky.social. Thanks to amazing @ktsetsos.bsky.social for his wise insights and our reviewers for their constructive comments.
