Finally out in Psychological Review (psycnet.apa.org/doi/10.1037/...), our update to Signal Detection Theory. We show that contrary to the prevailing Gaussian assumption, evidence distributions in recognition memory are likely minimum extreme Gumbel!

Honey, we fixed Signal Detection Theory (SDT)! In this preprint, Constantin Meyer-Grant, David Kellen, Sam Harding, and I critically evaluate the (unequal-variance) Gaussian SDT model in recognition memory and pursue the Gumbel-min model as a principled alternative: doi.org/10.31234/osf...

Proud to share new fMRI work by the fabulous Or Yizhar (not on Bsky): on the manifold level(s) of abstraction of visual working memories in visual cortex. With a fantastic team, Fabio Bauer, Inés Pont Sanchis, and @hanzule.bsky.social, supported by @erc.europa.eu

Tricky one to answer! I feel like I can't ever tell how my papers are received; they seem to be cited fairly. But I thought about my solo theory piece written as a postdoc – it felt like I was going out on a limb. I've wondered if that was appreciated, and whether the field thought I had a point!
Very excited to have this officially published:

New Publication Alert! 🚨
Along with @koberauer.bsky.social and @agnesrosner.bsky.social we investigated if eye movements are functional for memory retrieval in an associative recognition task and largely found evidence against it.
