The present study investigated individual differences in how much subjects rely on prior
information, such as expectations or knowledge, when faced with perceptual ambiguity. The …

Numerical Cognition: The Basics provides an understanding of the neural and cognitive
mechanisms that enable us to perceive, process, and memorize numerical information …

In a momentum-like effect, the likely future state of a current action or process is
extrapolated. Momentum-like effects have been suggested to reflect dynamic processes, but …

Jockeying and competing for higher status is an inherent feature of rank-ordered
hierarchies. Despite theoretically acknowledging rank changes within hierarchies, the extant …

Representational momentum (RM) is the term used to describe a systematic mislocalization
of dynamic stimuli, a forward shift; that is, an overestimation of the location of a stimulus …

If a vehicle is driving itself and asks the driver to take over, how much time does the driver
need to comprehend the scene and respond appropriately? Previous work on natural-scene …

The comprehension of dynamic naturalistic events poses at least two challenges to the
cognitive system: filtering relevant information with attention and dealing with information …

Action is always situated, always tied to specific contexts, and this is the case with respect to
both the non-conscious--and largely subpersonal--processes or mechanisms that make …

Current judgments are systematically biased by prior judgments. Such biases occur in ways
that seem to reflect the cognitive system's ability to adapt to statistical regularities within the …

Humans interpret others' behaviour as intentional and expect them to take the most energy-
efficient path to achieve their goals. Recent studies show that these expectations of efficient …
