Individual Differences in Performance on Iowa Gambling Task are Predicted by Tolerance and Intolerance for Uncertainty
.
Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) is frequently used to index individual differences in decision-making under uncertainty, particularly in atypical (clinical) populations. However, it is rarely analyzed as a learning task, and research on the predictors of performance on the IGT in normative populations is scarce. Here, we focused on tolerance and intolerance for uncertainty as two traits that could potentially influence subjects’ IGT performance. Using mixed modeling analysis of longitudinal experimental data (n=60, 5 blocks) we showed that tolerance for uncertainty predicted the initial level of risk in IGT as manifested in the proportion of “bad decks” chosen; at the same time, intolerance for uncertainty predicted explorative learning in IGT as manifested in the number of deck switches after a loss and its decline over the course of the experiment. The results are discussed in the context of viewing IGT as capturing a set of dynamic decision making processes that rely on learning, risk taking, and exploration.

Most climate policies are designed under a deterministic Earth system and their climate implications evaluated ex-post. Approaches that incorporate uncertainty ex-ante to anticipate Earth system risks remain underexplored. Here, we derive global climate strategies with an ex-ante approach, employing an integrated assessment framework that embeds estimates of physical uncertainty obtained through Bayesian fusion of Earth ...

The article presents a theoretical analysis reflecting the possible connection between tolerance to uncertainty and the long-term planning horizon. Planning is considered as a cognitive function that allows achieving goals by determining the sequence of individual steps and their subsequent implementation. Tolerance to uncertainty is understood as a person's ability to act in situations of ...

Research suggests hard-to-read fonts may improve information retention in adults, but this has rarely been tested in children. This experiment investigated the effect of font disfluency (fluent, disfluent, or mixed) on text retention and metacognitive judgments in 202 young learners (Mage = 10.13 years). Participants read a text, completed immediate and delayed recall tests, and provided ...

Innovation has long been at the center of debates in economics, management, and organizational studies. However, innovation is never free of uncertainty and risk. Every act of innovation implies a departure from established paths and a willingness to embrace the unknown. From the beginning it's never clear if there is an audience which appreciates the ...

Learning in, about and from the field? Symbolic functions of EU knowledge production on Central Asia
Korneev O., Kluczewska K., , in: EU–Central Asian Interactions: Perceptions, Interests and Practices.: Abingdon: Routledge, 2024. Ch. 3 P. 38–58.
Examining the European Union’s (EU) engagement with Central
Asia since the early 1990s, we see an increased commitment to
context sensitivity. Arguably, in order to design ‘better’
interventions, the EU needs to know more about this region. This
chapter explores three means of EU learning: in the field – through
EU officials’ first-hand experience of working at EU Delegations in
