{"pk":28398,"title":"HBU: Human Behavior Understanding by Choice Reaching","subtitle":null,"abstract":"Existing psychophysiological measures (fMRI, EEG) are impractical for a large-scale behavioral study due to their exor-bitant data acquisition cost. Psychological tests (Stroop task) are economical but are too coarse to inform dynamic interac-tions among perceptual, cognitive, and affective processes. By augmenting standard cognitive tests with choice-reachingmeasures, the complex interaction of motivation, action and cognition can be examined by analyzing the movement of thecomputer cursor pixel by pixel. Open source software and R library mousetrap help researchers to collect mouse-cursortrajectory data easily. With continued interest and innovation, the mouse-cursor trajectory method is likely to become astandard procedure for psychological tests, especially for the study investigating individual differences underlying cog-nitive, affective, and perceptual processing (Xiao & Yamauchi, 2014; Yamauchi et al., 2015; Yamauchi & Xiao 2017;Leontyev, Sun, Wolfe, & Yamauchi, 2018).","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[],"section":"Abstracts-Posters","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0k42x3c2","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Takashi","middle_name":"","last_name":"Yamauchi","name_suffix":"","institution":"Texas A&M University","department":""},{"first_name":"Anton","middle_name":"","last_name":"Leontyev","name_suffix":"","institution":"Texas A&M University","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"2018-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/28398/galley/18168/download/"}]}
