    Robo-investment aversion.

    In five experiments (N = 3,828), we investigate whether people prefer investment decisions to be made by human investment managers rather than by algorithms (“robos”). In all of...

    Separating conditional and unconditional cooperation in a sequential Prisoner...

    Most theories of social exchange distinguish between two different types of cooperation, depending on whether or not cooperation occurs conditional upon the partner’s previous...

    Evidence for a Time-Invariant Phase Variable in Human Ankle Control

    Human locomotion is a rhythmic task in which patterns of muscle activity are modulated by state-dependent feedback to accommodate perturbations. Two popular theories have been...
