Description
Computational modeling is now an integral part of psychology research, and understanding its applications can be challenging for those without a background in modeling. This comprehensive guide provides an integrated framework for developing and applying models across various disciplines.
The book offers both researchers and students the knowledge and tools to interpret existing models, as well as develop their own. It covers key aspects of model development, including fitting methods using maximum likelihood and Bayesian estimation, and explores the applications of models in different domains within the behavioural sciences.
Model comparison is presented as a core aspect of scientific inference, and the use of models to understand theories and advance scientific discourse is explained in detail. By providing a thorough understanding of computational modeling, this book enables readers to navigate the theoretical developments in their field with confidence.
