TLDR
It is shown that introspective ability is correlated with gray matter volume in the anterior prefrontal cortex, a region that shows marked evolutionary development in humans, and this findings point to a focal neuroanatomical substrate for introspection ability, a substrate distinct from that supporting primary perception.About:

Confidence as Bayesian Probability: From Neural Origins to Behavior.
TL;DR: This work explores how a definition of confidence as Bayesian probability can unify these viewpoints, and entails that there are distinct forms in which confidence is represented and used in the brain, including distributional confidence, pertaining to neural representations of probability distributions, and summary confidence, referring to scalar summaries of those distributions.

A computational framework for the study of confidence in humans and animals
Adam Kepecs,Zachary F. Mainen +1 more
TL;DR: This work critically discusses behavioural tasks employed to measure confidence in animals and shows that confidence assessments may be considered higher order, but can be generated using elementary neural computations that are available to a wide range of species.

Anatomical coupling between distinct metacognitive systems for memory and visual perception.

TL;DR: It is found that gray matter volumes of the frontal polar and precuneus regions themselves correlated across individuals, and a formal model comparison analysis suggested that this structural covariation was sufficient to account for the behavioral correlation of metacognition in the two tasks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metacognition: computation, biology and function
TL;DR: This introductory article to a Theme Issue on metacognition reviews recent and rapidly progressing developments from neuroscience, cognitive psychology, computer science and philosophy of mind, and proposes a framework in which level of representation, order of behaviour and access consciousness are orthogonal dimensions of the conceptual landscape.
Journal ArticleDOI
The construction of confidence in a perceptual decision.
TL;DR: This work studied how subjective confidence is constructed from noisy sensory evidence and challenges classical models of subjective confidence—which posit that the difference of evidence in favor of each choice is the seed of the confidence signal.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the steps involved in VBM, with particular emphasis on segmenting gray matter from MR images with non-uniformity artifact and provide evaluations of the assumptions that underpin the method, including the accuracy of the segmentation and the assumptions made about the statistical distribution of the data.

A fast diffeomorphic image registration algorithm
TL;DR: DARTEL has been applied to intersubject registration of 471 whole brain images, and the resulting deformations were evaluated in terms of how well they encode the shape information necessary to separate male and female subjects and to predict the ages of the subjects.

Transformed Up‐Down Methods in Psychoacoustics
TL;DR: A broad class of up‐down methods used in psychoacoustics with due emphasis on the related problems of parameter estimation and the efficient placing of observations is described, including examples where conventional techniques are inapplicable.
