Decision making involves assessing potential options and their expected outcomes. In most laboratory studies, decision making is examined through perceptual discrimination tasks with constant net sensory information, and explained as an accumulation of evidence until a threshold is reached. However, natural behavior involves dynamic, intermittently presented perceptual information, necessitating the use of memory. A recent study indicates that, in such cases, decisions align better with an urgency mechanism, which combines sensory evidence from memory or perception with a growing urgency signa
