We are using the framework of Bayesian inference and predictive processing to develop computational models for understanding the mechanistic underpinnings of cognitive processing in healthy brains, studying inter-individual differences using personality traits, and of potential cognitive alterations in psychiatric disorders, such as psychosis. The aim of the modelling is to build unifying approaches that allow translation between different cognitive domains such as decision making, language or memory proces
