Representational Momentum Transcends Motion Dillon Plunkett & Jorge Morales (2025) Psychological Science

When we see something that's moving, our memories about it end up projected forward in time: We remember it further along than it was. In a new paper in 𝘗𝘴𝘺𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘨𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘚𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦, out today and led by @dillonplunkett.bsky.social, we demonstrate that this happens even when there is 𝙣𝙤 𝙢𝙤𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩𝙨𝙤𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧.🧵

I'm very excited about the schedule of next week's workshop! 👇 Come join us via Zoom, in case of interest!

#ConSci

a while back i threatened to share this. finally online

for detection tasks we often systematically estimates sensitivity wrong. we need to control for unequal variance in models, but we often don't coz it needs extra data

now there's a virtually 'free' way to do it

Congratulations!!!! :)

Thank youuuuu! : )

A little late to the party but Preprint alert! : )
Happy to share our work on unconscious working memory!
Using visual ensemble methods + 2IFC paradigm across two experiments, we address key methodological challenges in measuring awareness! @dsotob.bsky.social

It's that time of the year! Come join us in sunny San Sebastian for three days of neuroscience, collaboration & (ofc) a lot of fun! :)

Heading to my very first ASSC! Quite excited to present my work, supervised by @dsotob.bsky.social on unconscious working memory in the concurrent session at Studio Theatre on Wednesday at 15:30! Please come drop by! : ) @assc28.bsky.social #ASSC28

Wondering the same here :')

man, when you've been absorbed by a pupillometry project and it's only several paragraphs into the report that you realize that this news is not about the pupil of the eye

Interesting work!

@saurabhr.bsky.social's first paper from my lab (on reality monitoring of memories) is ready to share! In our task, participants either perceived word pairs or voluntarily imagined the second word of a word pair. osf.io/preprints/ps... 1/n

Joining the #Inktober challenge this year - where artists tackle daily ink sketches with specific prompts throughout October. Here's my take on 'Saddle' with a little physics twist! Does this count as SciArt? :3

Brainy Days The Art of Neuroscience, online and IRL

For more than a decade, the gigantic Society for Neuroscience meeting has featured brain-inspired art 🧪🐡
Can someone on the neuroskyence feed share this pls? 🧠

New paper: we're getting close to showing unconscious perception with a non-biased (2IFC) visibility task, using both metacontrast masking and super fast presentations (980 micro(!!)-seconds) using a modern-day tachistoscope (shown here). Preprint here: osf.io/preprints/ps...

They find that energy landscapes ...

" we provide neural evidence that energy landscapes predict decision consistency, which reflects decision confidence."
