Abstract

In the original language

This is a response to the commentators of our original article. We agree that the resource model requires more detail to analyze and describe the various effects of ritual on individual cognition. More evidence is clearly needed to support our functional interpretation of the observed data. We also agree that depletion is only one aspect of ritual and that depletion may also have other psychological effects, which serve as additional functions that need to be identified, described, and investigated. Furthermore, rituals include non-depleting aspects that may have completely different effects on individuals and collectives, which would entail different functions for both. It would be interesting to see how the framework of predictive coding and the resource model could be used to analyze other mechanisms and their effects. In sum, we hope that we have convinced our readers that using a resource model and the principle of predictive coding is an interesting approach for identifying and analyzing the proximate effects of ritual.
