Description

To avoid starting with a formula a detour via utilized Signal detection theory (uSDT) familiarizes psychology undergraduates with some of the basic concepts in Bayesian statistics. uSDT includes payoffs (utility functions), base rates, and varies similarities, illustrated on perceptual decision processes. Payoffs and base rates influences bias, assisting students in understanding models and priors in Bayesian statistics.
