Serial dependence: A matter of memory load

In serial dependence, perceptual decisions are biased towards stimuli encountered in the recent past. Here, we investigate whether and how serial dependence is affected by the availability of visual working memory (VWM) resources. In two experiments, parti ...

Unlocking crowding by ensemble statistics

Michael Herzog, David Pascucci, Oh-Hyeon Choung, Yury Markov, Natalia Tiurina

In crowding,1-7 objects that can be easily recognized in isolation appear jumbled when surrounded by other elements.8 Traditionally, crowding is explained by local pooling mechanisms,3,6,9-15 but many findings have shown that the global configuration of th ...

(Un)crowding is pre-attentive

Michael Herzog, Alban Bornet, Yury Markov, Natalia Tiurina

In crowding, perception of a target deteriorates in the presence of nearby flankers. Crowding can be undone when additional flankers are presented, an effect known as uncrowding, which occurs when the flankers group with each other and ungroup from the tar ...

Serial dependence under memory load

Michael Herzog, David Pascucci, Ayberk Ozkirli, Gizay Ceylan, Yury Markov, Natalia Tiurina

Perceptual decisions are biased towards previous stimuli, a phenomenon known as serial dependence. However, the mechanisms of this bias are unknown. For example, it is debated whether serial dependence reflects a perceptual bias or interference of prior st ...

Real-world size bias strikes back: mean size estimation biased from the prior knowledge of object sizes

Natalia Tiurina

The real-world size of one object may affect the observer's evaluation of the size: participants overestimate the size of the familiar object if that object has a big size in the real world. However, would the same biases be observed for ensemble represent ...

Semantic knowledge affects object memory, but not object-location binding

Natalia Tiurina

The recent study demonstrated that object similarity affected object-location memory, but not object memory (Markov & Utochkin, 2021). However, it is not clear to what extent object and object-location memory rely on the independent resources or not. Studi ...

JURICS Stimulus base - Joint Universal Real-world Images with the Continuous States

Natalia Tiurina

In order to study perception and cognition in well-controlled settings, researchers often use simple objects as stimuli, such as colored circles or lines with different orientations. However, the visual processing of real-world objects may significantly di ...
