DOI: 10.1007/s00426-017-0934-y
Abstract: Evidence exists about the influence of interoception on time-keeping functions. In the current study we further addressed this topic by testing the effect of fasting and snack on the ability to estimate the duration of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1044/2023_aja-22-00186
Abstract: PURPOSE Recently, there has been a surge of interest in measuring vestibular perceptual thresholds, which quantify the smallest motion that a subject can reliably perceive, to study physiology and pathophysiology. These thresholds are sensitive to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1163/22134808-bja10072
Abstract: In this review, we discuss how specific sensory channels can mediate the learning of properties of the environment. In recent years, schools have increasingly been using multisensory technology for teaching. However, it still needs to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1167/18.5.12
Abstract: Humans can visually estimate the mechanical properties of deformable objects (e.g., cloth stiffness). While much of the recent work on material perception has focused on static image cues (e.g., textures and shape), little is known… read more here.

DOI: 10.1167/jov.20.9.14
Abstract: In this article, we address the problem of measuring and analyzing sensation, the subjective magnitude of one's experience. We do this in the context of the method of triads: The sensation of the stimulus is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1167/jov.22.3.18
Abstract: Decades of psychophysical experiments have shown that the perception of low luminance contrast violates Webers' law: contrast discrimination is best at low (but non-zero) pedestal intensities. This "dipper effect" is thought to be the product… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1008668
Abstract: The connection between stimulus perception and time perception remains unknown. The present study combines human and rat psychophysics with sensory cortical neuronal firing to construct a computational model for the percept of elapsed time embedded… read more here.

DOI: 10.3233/wor-192923
Abstract: BACKGROUND Obesity prevalence in the workforce is clearly increasing. Simultaneously, manual lifting/lowering loads, referred to as Vertical Handling Tasks (VHT) in this paper, are common in industries and services. Performing VHT exposes workers to physical… read more here.

A Generative View of Rationality and Growing Awareness†

DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2022.807261
Abstract: In this paper we contrast bounded and ecological rationality with a proposed alternative, generative rationality. Ecological approaches to rationality build on the idea of humans as “intuitive statisticians” while we argue for a more generative… read more here.

DOI: 10.3758/s13414-019-01832-2
Abstract: Repeated contexts yield faster response time in visual search, compared with novel contexts. This effect is known as contextual cueing. Despite extensive study over the past two decades, there remains a spirited debate over whether… read more here.

DOI: 10.3758/s13414-019-01871-9
Abstract: Spatial information can incidentally guide attention to the likely location of a target. This contextual cueing was even observed if only the relative configuration, but not the individual locations of distractor items were repeated or… read more here.
