HDDM drift rate estimates for source memory. In each panel, columns
denote encoding task (left: self-reference task, right: valence task), and
colors denote normative valence (blue: positive, red: negative). Error bars in
panel (a) represent 95% HDIs. Error bands in panel (b) represent 95% bootstrap
confidence intervals (Waskom et al.,
2017). In Panel (b), dashed vertical lines denote standard cutoffs for
mild, moderate, and severe depression. Panel (a) depicts more efficient evidence
accumulation towards a “self-reference” response for positive vs.
negative words from the self-reference task, but less efficient accumulation
towards a “valence” response for positive vs. negative words from
the valence task. Panel (b) demonstrates that as BDI scores increase, drift rate
increases (towards a “self-reference” response) for negative words
but decreases (towards a “valence” response) for positive words,
regardless of task.
