Topic: physical effort

Decisions about effort are a part of everyday life and have important implications for survival. While several studies have explored effort learning tasks and investigated the underlying mechanisms, a critical aspect remains unexplored - the reliability of effort learning over time. Uncovering whether effort learning rates are trait- or state-based is an important step in fully understanding the mechanisms involved. The aim of this study was to identify the test-retest reliability of a well established effort learning task. A cohort of 28 participants completed an adapted version of the task,
