It has been proposed that schizophrenia patients rely more on sensory input and less on prior information. According to this view, they are less affected by visual illusions that rely on perceptual priors. But is this really true?(shorturl.at/jmhKv) 1/6🧵

Our visual experience is biased towards the past. Despite extensive research on serial dependencies, their purpose remains unknown. In our @natrevpsych.bsky.social paper (rdcu.be/dD8of) we propose they are manifestations of Continuity Fields, purposeful integration mechanisms 1/8

In a new Perspective Mauro Manassi (@mauromanassi.bsky.social) & David Whitney propose continuity fields as the mechanism underlying positive serial dependence (whereby objects/features are biased to appear like previously seen stimuli) Web: go.nature.com/3VNAscT PDF: rdcu.be/dD9iJ #psychology

We are receiving many emails regarding the overlapping ECVP and ECEM dates. ECVP 2024 dates were announced in 2022, and ECEM communicated their dates this Monday. We are currently reaching out to ECEM organisers to find a solution in the interest of the vision community #ECVP2024 #ECEM2024

Many psychophysics & brain mapping studies use small samples. This often deeply confuses editors & reviewers trained on population statistics. It can also make it difficult to preregister & interpret such studies. Here we attempt to change that: doi.org/10.1101/2023... #neuroscience #visionscience
