The Dynamic Processes Underlying Decision Making Under Time-Pressure

每天我们都会遇到必须迅速决定行动方针的情况。例如，我们可能需要在不烫伤自己的情况下迅速关掉炉子上沸腾的锅，或者在驾驶时发现并做出反应以避免可能的道路危险。总的来说，我们需要选择和执行行动来实现我们的目标，避免消极的结果。要做到这一点，我们必须首先关注环境中的适当信息，以获得做出决策所需的信息。一旦我们获得了信息，我们就必须在选择和计划行动时适当地权衡这些信息。这项研究的长期目标是了解这些影响快速视觉运动决策的过程。

Every day we encounter situations where we must rapidly decide on a course of action. For instance, we may need to quickly reach to turn off pot that is boiling over on the stove without burning ourselves or detect and then react to avoid possible road dangers while driving. Overall, we need to select and perform actions that achieve our goals and avoid negative outcomes. To do this, we must first attend to the appropriate information in the environment to gain the necessary information to make a decision. Once we have gained the information we then have to weigh the information appropriately when selecting and planning actions. The long-term goal of the proposed research is to understand these processes that influence rapid visuomotor decision-making.
