This highlights the role of action understanding in learning about stimuli in the environment without the need for trial and error or explicit communication—simply by allowing us to ‘read’ value from how others approach things in our environment.

Snap up this opportunity that’s too good to miss—and no, I’m not talking about reading this paper! The speed with which an actor reaches for a foraging stimulus signals its value to observers, who use this to guide their own foraging behaviour.

New preprint describing our study in which two people jointly controlled a humanoid robot!
See how self-other overlap with robot & partner increased, & how "we-information" affected their performance

Seeing Theory by Brown University is such a great interactive way to learn the fundamentals of probability in #psychstats! It has #dataviz for more advanced concepts like regression and ANOVA, too! 📊 #IOPsych seeing-theory.brown.edu

New paper: Personality correlates of out-group harm
We show that out-group harm is uniquely associated with the 'dark factor', the common core of aversive personality traits -- and unrelated to prosocial traits associated with 'in-group love'.

Human ventromedial prefrontal cortex is necessary for prosocial motivation nature.com/articles/s4156… with @DrJoCutler @BrainInTheMind + many others. We show multiple causal roles of vmPFC in prosocial motivation, effort and reward in a rare large cohort with focal vmPFC damage

Can our brain activity synchronize spontaneously even if we are not doing any specific task? How would that even occur? To find the answers, come to hear my talk today at 15 (oral session 18 first floor Leslokaal 1.2) at @escan2024 #ESCAN2024 Spoiler: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

ESCANners - come to the Decision making II session to find out whether people sort the trustworthy from the shady based on how they move when implementing economic decisions. Last session so plenty of time to cancel early flights home (i won’t pay your rebooking fee) @escan2024

Very pleased to see this out now Open Access in Nature Human Behaviour
We investigated how well different LLMs performed on tests of Theory of Mind and compared their results against human performance (1/7)

Last but not least... I am on the job market since last summer and it hasn't been exactly a lucky ride. 😟 If anyone knows of positions for academics with an aptitude for interdisciplinary and evoutionarily grounded approaches to social cognition, do let me know! 🐒♥️ 15/15

New paper alert! 🚨
Late to sharing this, but here's a short review of a decade of work with @GCsibra on how infants represent giving, and why it matters (for event cognition and the origins of the relational mind).

It’s amazing how many empirical features of interactions and collective response can emerge from a simple imperative: to minimize surprise. Out today in PNAS @PNASNews - with @conorheins @richardpmann Karl Friston and colleagues! @CBehav @maxplanckpress pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…
