BayesCog: A freely available course in Bayesian statistics and hierarchical Bayesian modeling for psychological science

2025-11-16

Abstract excerpt

<p>We present BayesCog, an openly-available online course for the computational modeling of human behaviour (i.e., cognitive modeling) using Bayesian inference, with reinforcement learning as a core example throughout the course. Assuming little to no prior experience, audience of this course will be formally grounded in key concepts including Bayesian statistics and reinforcement learning, and practically, will b...
