| summary | Can we successfully ignore information we deem irrelevant or unreliable? And can we become aware of how such information can bias our choices? The ability to introspect and evaluate the factors influencing our decisions constitutes a key metacognitive function but little is known of the cognitive processes that underlie this ability. In this talk, I will present new studies where we measured participants’ ability to voluntarily ignore information that could bias their choices. Using a computational modelling approach of choice, we demonstrated that irrelevant or unreliable information continued to bias decisions, even when explicitly labelled as such. Participants were able to become aware of some of those biases but did not manage to compensate for them, showing a dissociation between metacognitive knowledge and metacognitive control. |
