  • This table shows the median, 25th, and 75th percentiles of BIC scores and best-fit parameter estimates for 10 variants of PE models (5 assumptions on ActualCost [Solve-Time (SV), High-Low (HL), Incorrect-Correct (IC), ST-IC, and HL-IC] × 2 assumptions on ECunchosen(1) [free parameter or equal to ECchosen(1)]), two types of additionally considered PE models (Rest and HL-Rest models), and pWSLS and PS models. ECunchosen, the expected cost for the unchosen option; ECchosen, the expected cost for the chosen option; α, learning rate; β, inverse temperature; wincorrect, weighting parameter; αcost, the learning rate for cost; αreward, the learning rate for reward; wreward, weighting parameter; p, probability to select the different and same option after Win and Lose, respectively; a, probability to select the same option after Win; b, probability to select the same option after Lose.
