Awe- and Aw-inspiring readings (or just stuff you think deserves a mention)

What we did over last week

Florian

Xin

1. Ran and analyzed control data from Exp.3 & 4 for BCS207 group; added baseline performance (predicted) as a predictor. Sadly (mysteriously) didn't bring us an expected effect. Further analyses needed.

2. Modified Exp1_v2 for the priming study (instructions, timing stamps, conditional practice trials). Ran & analyzed new data (n=16).

3. Read a couple of papers on reinforcement learning and memory systems.
4. Finished revision of cross-talker manuscript.
5. Had two individual meetings with RAs to walk them through project ideas.
