Motivation, learning, planning and strategy change in brain and behaviour
Deciding between apples and oranges has been an age-old question not just for hungry shoppers but within the field of decision-making research. However, very rarely have researchers considered the possibility to reject either and move on to the next shelf or even leave the shop altogether. I have previously argued that such a sequential decision making framework is not just essential for understanding foraging (1) in the wild, but also ecological, real life, behaviour (2)(3).
