Predictive Social Cognition: Neural and Computational Approaches to Understanding How Perceivers Glimpse the Social Future
Navigating the social world requires foresight. How do people make predictions about others’ future thoughts, feelings, and actions from information available in the present? Using behavioral, computational, neural, and developmental methods, emerging research on predictive social cognition provides insight into how people compute, represent, and deploy social predictions.
