Awe- and Aw-inspiring readings (or just stuff you think deserves a mention)
What we did over last week

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.
Modified Exp1_v2 for the priming study (instructions, timing stamps, conditional practice trials). Ran & analyzed new data (n=16).
- Read a couple of papers on reinforcement learning and memory systems.
- Finished revision of cross-talker manuscript.
- Had two individual meetings with RAs to walk them through project ideas.
