“…In our model, this parameter not only governs how strongly the actual choices depend on their individual valuation, but also determines how precisely you think about the future and thus how well you can rely on the current information you have already gathered. Our finding is thus likely to align with a slow emergence of model-based reasoning ( Decker et al, 2016 ; Smid et al, 2020 ; Vaghi et al, 2020 ) and related aspects of higher-order cognitive computations (e.g., Bolenz & Eppinger, 2020 ; Decker et al, 2016 ; Hauser, Iannaccone, Walitza, Brandeis, & Brem, 2015 ; Somerville et al, 2017 ; Tymula et al, 2012 ; van den Bos, Rodriguez, Schweitzer, & McClure, 2015 ) that require substantial resources that may not be available until later in adolescence ( Thompson-Schill et al, 2009 ; Ziegler et al, 2019 ).…”
