Our recent experiences influence how we perceive and make decisions, a concept known as serial dependence. While this has been studied in how we see…

Understanding time accurately is vital for many cognitive processes. People’s time estimates often converge around the average when presented with various intervals. Although prior research…

Context plays a pivotal role in our daily decision-making processes. For instance, when navigating a familiar city, we often rely on landmarks to guide us.…

Context plays a critical role in directing our attention, as we often subconsciously learn associations between targets and their surroundings to enhance performance. The flexibility…

Incorporating statistical properties of stimuli into the interpretation of sensory data can greatly enhance the accuracy of perception amidst noisy input; however, it can also…

A recent study, led by our former team member, Dr. Cemre Baykan, titled “Blocked versus interleaved: How range contexts modulate time perception and its EEG…

Subjective time perception fluctuates with a stimulus’s valence and expectancy. Karaaslan and Shi’s (2024) research examined how temporal and probabilistic expectancies affect the duration perception…

Dr. Siyi Chen, a junior resident at LMU CAS, orchestrated a two-day workshop (18-19 March, 2024) that brought together leading scientists to explore the concept…

Recently Stanković et al. (2024) used a novel dual-target search paradigm to investigate influence of state anxiety on stimulus-driven attentional capture. And we found that…

Our perception and decision-making are susceptible to prior context. In our recent study, published in Cerebral Cortex, Ms. Cheng and colleagues employed functional magnetic resonance…
