Two-stage dynamic signal detection: A theory of choice, decision time, and confidence.
Abstract
The 3 most often-used performance measures in the cognitive and decision sciences are choice, response or decision time, and confidence. We develop a random walk/diffusion theory-2-stage dynamic signal detection (2DSD) theory-that accounts for all 3 measures using a common underlying process. The model uses a drift diffusion process to account for choice and decision time. To estimate confidence, we assume that evidence continues to accumulate after the choice. Judges then interrupt the process to categorize the accumulated evidence into a confidence rating. The model explains all known interrelationships between the 3 indices of performance. Furthermore, the model also accounts for the distributions of each variable in both a perceptual and general knowledge task. The dynamic nature of the model also reveals the moderating effects of time pressure on the accuracy of choice and confidence. Finally, the model specifies the optimal solution for giving the fastest choice and confidence rating for a given level of choice and confidence accuracy. Judges are found to act in a manner consistent with the optimal solution when making confidence judgments.

“Pleskac & Busemeyer (2010) additionally proposed that this evidence accumulation process may continue after a decision has been made, informing estimates of decision confidence and potentially leading to changes of mind (Resulaj et al. 2009, van den Berg et al. 2016a).”

“In contrast, the field of perceptual decision-making has highlighted the fact that confidence can be measured independently of the choice process itself9,10, where it is conceptualized as reflecting a “second-order” metacognitive evaluation.”

In the citing paper
“Pleskac and collaborators have shown that a single process can explain confidence in choices made in perceptual (line discrimination and random dot motion) and cognitive (city size inference) tasks (Pleskac & Busemeyer, 2010;Yu, Pleskac, & Zeigenfuse, 2015).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
