Or even better, do the quick easy task and fail it so it doesn't go into the pool of rewards :sneaky:
My guess is that after the pandemic Nath didn't really want to be working on this given the other projects he had/has going on. As a result, he...
I wonder if blood flow to the brain had any impact on the results. There is at least some good evidence to suggest that, when upright, blood flow...
The Kynurenine and Pro measurements are having a lot of pull on that trend line. Still without those two, the measurements don't line up...
Exactly. This whole discussion makes me so angry. Not because this conversation isn't great, but because this is a nonsense test which should have...
Just adding on, I think the authors reasoning for excluding HC F is that his split between easy and hard tasks don't match his true "effort...
I am not sure anyone said HC F had the best strategy, but it is clearly more effective. There are some ways to play that are just better if your...
Not quite sure what your point is here. It is clear that HV F's strategy is better from the point of view of achieving more money. It may not be...
The EEfRT is also terrible because takes a complex decision making task, with many 100s or 1000s of inputs and simplifies it to a single measure...
Just adding on, this isn't a problem with the the use of EEfRT in this study, it is a problem with the test in general. The fact that the strategy...
They should have just stayed away from all of these poorly defined terms and just stuck to the actual (very limited) findings.
What really sickens me about all this is the insistence that what they are doing is in the best interest of patients. It takes a whole other level...
Their evidence for this is we just made it up.
Great, an economics task where your data is removed if you utilize the economically optimal strategy. How this kind of test can be seen as useful...
From the perspective of a healthy control, the aim of the game has to be to maximize the reward they receive. From this perspective it makes...
Perhaps, but I'm not convinced. MRI is a sensitive indicator of swelling and damage in the brain. It doesn't seem to be as good at detecting what...
I think it is more accurate to say it describes something which we do not have sufficient evidence to conclude that it occurs.
I agree with everything you said. Especially given that it was a 21 year old guy who figured it out, there is no way he didn't at least mention...
They were certainly told this before hand "Participants were told at the beginning of the game that they would win the dollar amount they received...
That's awesome, I think that's exactly what's going on. The authors concluding that this is a test of effort preference when the optimal strategy...
