Fitting a\ndiffusion model to participant behavior over sessions al-\nlows conclusions as to the underlying causes of behav-\nioral changes—be they changes in cognitive strategies,\nadaptation to the paradigm, increasing familiarity with\nthe stimuli, or speed of information processing. Our dif-\nfusion model analysis revealed that participants simul-\ntaneously adapt speed-accuracy trade-off, increase their\nnon-decisional response speed, and increase their speed\nof information processing. All three of these adaptations\ntransferred to a similar, non-trained outcome task.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[{"word":"transfer of training; diffusion model; cog-\nnitive psychometrics"}],"section":"Papers","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/49z012s9","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Colin","middle_name":"","last_name":"Kupitz","name_suffix":"","institution":"UCI","department":""},{"first_name":"Martin","middle_name":"","last_name":"buschkuehl","name_suffix":"","institution":"MIND research institute","department":""},{"first_name":"Susanne","middle_name":"","last_name":"Jaeggi","name_suffix":"","institution":"UCI","department":""},{"first_name":"John","middle_name":"","last_name":"Jonides","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of Michigan","department":""},{"first_name":"Priti","middle_name":"","last_name":"Shah","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of Michigan","department":""},{"first_name":"Joachim","middle_name":"","last_name":"Vandekerckhove","name_suffix":"","institution":"UCI","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"2015-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/25584/galley/15208/download/"}]}
