Direct linkDon, Hilary J.; Worthy, Darrell A. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
Recent work in reinforcement learning has demonstrated a choice preference for an option that has a lower probability of reward (A) when paired with an alternative option that has a higher probability of reward (C), if A has been experienced more frequently than C (the frequency effect). This finding is critical as it is inconsistent with…

Schulze, Christin; van Ravenzwaaij, Don; Newell, Ben R. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2017
Learning to choose adaptively when faced with uncertain and variable outcomes is a central challenge for decision makers. This study examines repeated choice in dynamic probability learning tasks in which outcome probabilities changed either as a function of the choices participants made or independently of those choices. This presence/absence of…
