Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental Our account makes quantitative predictions about how people should plan and meta-plan as a function of the overall structure of a task, which we test in two experiments with human participants. We find that people s reaction times reflect a planned use of information processing, consistent with our account.

Pseudocode No Finally, at the end of this section and in the supplementary materials, we present a gradient-based algorithm for solving this objective.
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any explicit statements or links regarding open-source code availability for the described methodology.
Open Datasets No The paper describes how the Gridworld mazes were generated for the experiments, but it does not provide any information, links, or citations for public access to these datasets.
Dataset Splits No The paper describes experiments with human participants and mazes but does not mention any specific training, validation, or test dataset splits.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not specify any particular hardware used for running the models or experiments, such as GPU or CPU models.
Software Dependencies No The paper mentions the 'Adam optimizer' and 'psi Turk framework' but does not provide specific version numbers for any software dependencies.
Experiment Setup Yes Step costs were included ( .1 points) and the discount rate was set to .99, with λ = 0.01. Planning iterations were chosen such that value iteration would converge (H = 100), while meta-planning parameters were solved using the Adam optimizer (Kingma and Ba 2014) for N = 200 iterations (see supplementary materials for details on the algorithm).
