Bayesian decision-making under stress-preserved weighting of prior and likelihood information

Abstract: A rich body of empirical work has addressed the question of how stress changes the way we memorize, learn, and make high-level decisions in complex scenarios. There is evidence that stress also changes the way we perceive the world, indicating influences on decision-making at lower levels. Surprisingly, as of yet, little research has been conducted in this domain. A few studies suggest that under stress, humans tend to eschew existing knowledge, and instead focus on novel input or information from bottom-up. D… Show more

“…To understand how the uncertainty of prior and likelihood information may influence decisionmaking, we employed a coin-catching sensorimotor task that modulated the uncertainty of both prior and likelihood information (13,20,35,36). We introduced the coin-catching task to the participants with a backstory involving an unknown person throwing a coin and aiming for the center of the pond.…”

“…We aimed to recruit at least 30 participants, based on the number of healthy participants recruited in previous coin task paradigms (Randeniya et al, 2021;Trapp & Vilares, 2020;Vilares et al, 2012;Vilares & Kording, 2017) and based on similar test re-test studies investigating individual differences in perceptual inference (Pálffy et al, 2021;Waltmann et al, 2022). To account for potential dropout and exclusion, we initially recruited 62 participants who completed the first testing session.…”
