Pupil size correlates with near-threshold detection performance irrespective of stimulus color, eccentricity, or retinal adaptation state [0.03%]
瞳孔大小与刺激颜色、偏心率或视网膜适应状态无关的接近阈值的检测性能有关

In visual near-threshold detection tasks, larger prestimulus pupil size is associated with improved accuracy. However, previous studies have used black-and-white peripherally presented stimuli, leaving open the question of whether the relat...

Seamless visual perception is achieved through the balance between recent perceptual history and ongoing sensory evidence. This balance has been examined under the framework of perceptual hysteresis, in which the visual system either favors...

Previous studies have shown that individuals can incidentally learn time-event regularities. This study extends prior research by examining such learning across different stages of information processing, from attention to action, beyond si...
Trade-offs between visual sampling and memory in stable and changing worlds [0.03%]
稳态与动态环境下的视觉采样和记忆的权衡关系

In natural behavior, humans make trade-offs between sampling information from the visual environment and relying on memory. As is often the case, observers favor visual sampling when its cost is low (e.g., a sampling only takes a few saccad...

This study examines cross-linguistic patterns of eye movements before, during, and after return sweeps-the saccades that move readers' gaze from one line of text to the next. Using data from 28 language samples representing 22 languages and...
The role of speech perception gradiency in L1 versus L2 spoken-word recognition [0.03%]
听觉感知渐变在第一语言和第二语言单词识别中的作用

Brian W L Wong
Speech perception gradiency reflects sensitivity to subphonemic differences. Prior research has shown that gradiency facilitates recovery from misperceptions (i.e., speech perception flexibility) in L1 (Kapnoula et al., 2021), but whether a...

The ability to adjust behavior in an adaptive manner is critical for functioning and has been linked to the metacognitive processes of monitoring and controlling cognition. A prominent behavioral adjustment is post-error slowing (PES): the ...

Speech sounds are based on categories, but listeners are also sensitive to within-category acoustic variation. This gradient system helps promote flexibility, deal with ambiguity, and maintain plasticity. Although the exact sources of gradi...
Beyond mixed alerting signals: Disentangling phasic from tonic influences on visual attention and cognitive control [0.03%]
混合警报信号的影响：分离相位和稳态对视觉注意力和认知控制的影响

Dawa Dupont
Alertness plays a critical role in sensory processing, yet the extent to which phasic (transient) and tonic (sustained) alertness interact in shaping attention and cognitive control of attention (top-down control) remains unclear. We report...
When forewarned is not forearmed: No evidence for cue-based proactive control in the spatial Stroop task [0.03%]
预警未必即防备：空间斯特鲁普任务中不存在基于线索的前瞻性控制证据

It is commonly assumed that people can use advance cues to proactively prepare for conflict from distracting stimulus features, yet empirical findings remain inconsistent. We tested the hypothesis that nonarbitrary stimulus-response (S-R) m...
