Introduction to Computational Psychology

An introduction to computational cognitive science with a focus on probabilistic modeling. Code and exercises in Python.

Welcome

Thanks

This book borrows inspiration and content (especially Chapters 2 and 7) from Fausto Carcassi’s Introduction to Cognitive Modelling in R book and I am tremendously grateful to him for sharing his book publicly. Hopefully this resource will be equally helpful to others.

A number of the modeling examples and homework assignments are adapted from code written by Danielle Navarro from previous iterations of her Computational Cognitive Science course with Andy Perfors. I am very grateful to both of them for making all of their materials public (and well documented).

Your feedback is welcome and encouraged.
