Widely used bandit tasks elicit diverging belief updating phenotypes in healthy adults

2026-05-13

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Adaptive decision-making requires dynamic arbitration between internal beliefs and incoming evidence, yet the role that environment structure plays in shaping these dynamics has received little systematic attention. We used three inductive reasoning and three bandit tasks to investigate these trial-by-trial dynamics in N=120 healthy adults. Using a novel computational model, we found th...
