Visual displays for communicating multiple uncertain forecasts.

When decision makers receive multiple uncertain forecasts (as with the COVID-19 pandemic), they need displays that will help them to integrate the competing predictions. One display option is presenting the full suite of forecasts. A second is presenting a summary ensemble, reducing cognitive load at the price of obscuring disagreements. One compromise is presenting both, allowing decision makers to tailor their usage, with an even greater cognitive load. A second compromise is presenting one display but allow users to click through to see the other. In two experiments, using a suite of 10 CDC forecasts and an ensemble based on median values, we compared users’ performance with displays presenting the (a) suite, then adding the ensemble; (b) the ensemble, then adding the suite; and (c) the suite and the ensemble combined. Using diverse, online convenience samples and hypothetic scenarios, we found that participants responded similarly to the combined displays, if they saw them initially together or only after seeing the suite or the ensemble. Participants responded differently if they saw just the suite or just the ensemble—as would happen if they did not click through from the single display. Outliers in the suite display appeared responsible for the difference. The result was robust whether the suite displays were ordered randomly, by confidence interval widths, or by median prediction. Comprehension was good with all displays. These results indicate the importance of ensuring that decision makers receive and understand both the suite and the ensemble perspective when there are multiple uncertain forecasts.

Metacognitive awareness of subjective difficulty, effort, and frustration in cognitive conflict contexts.

This study investigated whether individuals are metacognitively aware of varying cognitive task demands induced by cognitive conflict and examined the subjective experiences of difficulty, effort, and frustration at both the trial and block levels. Using a numerical Stroop task, we manipulated task difficulty by varying the proportion of congruent trials between blocks (10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 90%). Participants (N = 202) provided ratings of difficulty, effort, or frustration on a trial-by-trial basis and after each block. Participants showed a fine-grained trial-level awareness of varying task demands. They showed differences in subjective experience between incongruent and congruent trials, and this difference was influenced by the proportion congruency. Additionally, at the trial level, participants showed a distinct pattern of responding between difficulty, effort, and frustration ratings, indicating that they were metacognitively aware that these were unique subjective experiences. In contrast, block-level awareness was poor, with only the least demanding block (90% congruent trials) being experienced as less demanding. These findings suggest that precise awareness of varying task demands operates at the trial level where fast adaptation to task demands is needed but becomes less accurate at the block level.
