Are you good at planning things?
The new research made by New York University claims that you can actually improve your skill of planning your future better.
Let's find out more.
The research
Researchers at New York University have developed a computational model that sheds light on our ability to plan for the future.
The study, published in the journal Nature, explores the concept of "planning depth" and its impact on decision-making.
The team found that even with moderate practice, individuals can improve their ability to think further ahead.
How it was tested
The research involved participants playing a complex game that required deep planning, while a computer model based on artificial intelligence principles was used to understand their decision-making processes.
The model successfully predicted human moves in the game, demonstrating that humans build decision trees in their minds when faced with complex scenarios.
Why is that important
The study highlights the role of pattern recognition and experience in enhancing planning skills.
The findings open up avenues for further research on planning development in children and the retention of planning abilities in old age.
