MIT_EVC
Simulations that formalize predictions of Motivational Intensity Theory (MIT) in terms of Expected Value of Control (EVC) Theory
The following plots are available:
Expected value of control (EVC) as a function of task difficulty: plotEVC.m
Control signal intensity (invested effort) as a function of expected task difficulty: plotTaskDifficulty.m
Maximum control signal intensity (success importance) as a function of the value associated with a primary task: plotMaxSignal_ValueTask1.m
Maximum tolerable difficulty as a function of the value associated with an alternative task: plotAvoidancePoint_ValueTask2.m
Maximum control signal intensity (success importance) as a function of the cost of control: plotMaxSignal_controlCostTask1.m
Maximum tolerable difficulty as a function of the cost of control: plotAvoidancePoint_controlCostTask1.m
