Abstract
Empirical data from 2 experiments confirmed the format dependence predicted by the combined error model (P. Juslin, H. Olsson, & M. Bjorkman, 1997). Format dependence refers to the simultaneous observation of over/underconfidence in judgment for the same

A comprehensive framework for the theory of probabilistic mental models (PMM theory) is proposed, which explains both the overconfidence effect and the hard-easy effect and predicts conditions under which both effects appear, disappear, or invert.

A computational model is presented for 1 class of tasks dominated by Thurstonian uncertainty: sensory discrimination with pair comparisons that predicts decisions, confidence assessments, and the complex pattern of response times in simple psychophysical discrimination tasks (J.V. Baranski and W.M. Petrusic, 1994).

The Brunswikian framework provided by the theory of Probabilistic Mental Models, and other theoretical stances inspired by probabilisticfunctionalism, is combined with the Thurstonian notion of a stochasticonent of judgment to capture many of the important phenomena in the calibration literature.

CognitionCan overconfidence be used as an indicator of reconstructive rather than retrieval processes?
42 Citations1995Peter Juslin, Anders Winman +1 more
It is argued that overconfidence cannot be considered a reliable indicator of reconstructive processes since people may be well calibrated for tasks that require inference, provided that tasks are selected in offunbiased manner and the issue of which is the most appropriate interpretation of solution probabilities is neglected.
