Principles of belief acquisition. How we read other minds
Conscious Cogn. 2023 Dec 29;117:103625. doi: 10.1016/j.concog.2023.103625. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTReading other minds is a pervasive feature of human social life. A decade of research indicates that people can automatically track an agent's beliefs regardless of whether this is required. But little is known about the principles t guide automatic belief tracking. In six experiments adapting a false belief task introduced by Kovács et al. (2010), we tested whether belief tracking is interrupted by either an agent's lack of perceptual access or else by an agent's constrained action possibilities. We also tested whethe...

Attentional blur and blink: Effects of adaptive attentional scaling on visual awareness
This study investigates the adaptive control of attentional scaling and its influence on visual awareness in an attentional blink paradigm. Participants were required to attend to the first target's location, which was manipulated either session-wise, trial-wise, or such that it could be learned across a block of trials. Discrete, all-or-none, awareness was expected when attention was allocated to a narrow area, while gradual awareness was expected when attention was allocated to a larger area. We used mixture modeling to assess second target awareness across these different attentional scales. The results revealed that pa...

How to get rich from inflation
Conscious Cogn. 2023 Dec 26;117:103624. doi: 10.1016/j.concog.2023.103624. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWe seem to have rich experience across our visual field. Yet we are surprisingly poor at tasks involving the periphery and low spatial attention. Recently, Lau and collaborators have argued that a phenomenon known as "subjective inflation" allows us to reconcile these phenomena. I show inflation is consistent with multiple interpretations, with starkly different consequences for richness and for theories of consciousness more broadly. What's more, we have only weak reasons favouring any of these interpretations over the...

Distrust before first sight? Examining knowledge- and appearance-based effects of trustworthiness on the visual consciousness of faces
Conscious Cogn. 2023 Dec 26;117:103629. doi: 10.1016/j.concog.2023.103629. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe present EEG study with 32 healthy participants investigated whether affective knowledge about a person influences the visual awareness of their face, additionally considering the impact of facial appearance. Faces differing in perceived trustworthiness based on appearance were associated with negative or neutral social information and shown as target stimuli in an attentional blink task. As expected, participants showed enhanced awareness of faces associated with negative compared to neutral social information. On t...
