The dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) has a near-ubiquitous presence in the
neuroscience of cognitive control. It has been implicated in a diversity of functions, from …

There are few behavioral effects as ubiquitous as the speed-accuracy tradeoff (SAT). From
insects to rodents to primates, the tendency for decision speed to covary with decision …

Inter-individual variability in perception, thought and action is frequently treated as a source
of'noise'in scientific investigations of the neural mechanisms that underlie these processes …

In many situations, decision makers need to negotiate between the competing demands of
response speed and response accuracy, a dilemma generally known as the speed …

Intelligent agents balance speed of responding with accuracy of deciding. Stochastic
accumulator models commonly explain this speed-accuracy tradeoff by strategic adjustment …

Human decision-making almost always takes place under time pressure. When people are
engaged in activities such as shopping, driving, or playing chess, they have to continually …

Sequential sampling models have provided a dominant theoretical framework guiding
computational and neurophysiological investigations of perceptual decision-making. While …

When people make decisions they often face opposing demands for response speed and
response accuracy, a process likely mediated by response thresholds. According to the …

Current computational accounts posit that, in simple binary choices, humans accumulate
evidence in favour of the different alternatives before committing to a decision. Neural …
