Project description
 

The aim of the research is to better understand the processes involved in human contingency learning. In particular, we will investigate the role of automatic and controlled processes in contingency learning. We will also attempt to construct a computational model of learning to better understand the processes involved in the learning of contingencies between stimuli and responses.
