A Functional Model of Sensemaking in a Neurocognitive Architecture

Sample output from Task 4. Participants must generate the likelihood that a probe event (denoted by the Diamond) was produced by each category (1–4), first by the HUMINT layer (distance from category centroids to probe event) and then by the SOCINT layer (likelihoods are doubled for the category in whose region the probe event falls). Finally, participants allocate resources to maximize their trial score. For instance, category 4 has the highest likelihood because it is the closest category and the probe falls within its boundary.
