description |
Models that integrate sensory evidence to a threshold can explain task accuracy, response times and
confidence, yet it is still unclear how confidence is encoded in the brain. Classic models assume that
confidence is encoded in some form of balance between the evidence integrated in favor and against
the selected option. However, recent experiments that measure the sensory evidence’s influence on
choice and confidence contradict these classic models. We propose that the decision is taken by many
loosely coupled modules each of which represent a stochastic sample of the sensory evidence integral.
Confidence is then encoded in the dispersion between modules. We show that our proposal can account
for the well established relations between confidence, and stimuli discriminability and reaction times,
as well as the fluctuations influence on choice and confidence. |
