What this claim means

People change how fast they learn depending on how noisy or unpredictable their environment is—learning faster in chaotic situations, slower when things change too quickly, and keeping a steady pace...

See the technical phrasing

Humans adjust their learning rate in response to environmental uncertainty, increasing it in high-noise environments (β = 0.01, SE = 0.005, p = .002) and decreasing it in high-volatility environments (β = −0.01, SE = 0.004, p = .005), while maintaining stable learning rates in intermediate environments, indicating flexible cognitive adaptation to the structure of uncertainty.
