"In contrast, when engaging with a low perceptual load task (demands do not fill one's perceptual capacity), having extra capacity can have a negative impact as it may result in the automatic processing of task-irrelevant information resulting in increased vulnerability to distraction." 2/2

New interest path: "having increased perceptual capacity can allow more effective processing of the necessary information and, consequently, superior task performance (Remington, Swettenham, and Lavie 2012). 1/2

Oh I get so impatient drawing. I think I jump to another area quite quick. I just want all the space to be filled quick. Once it's filled then I can sometimes go back. But generally only when it's abstract. I feel discomfort working with blank spaces. Writing too. Maybe it's anticipation.

I've spent over 3 months researching #catfountains, with the question of whether it's really necessary always floating near by. Only to now order one with nearly no research on the spot. I wonter is this a common #Audhd battle or just a Jess thing. I've repeated this pattern many times before.

I told my family that I will need to take 2hrs on my own this Christmas day. I hope it is accepted on the day as well as it was when I said it. 🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ Cat walks will be need for my sanity and their happiness.

Thank you for sharing this, 😊 I'm currently trying to think of everyday examples that would help explain this in simple ways. So if anyone has any idea of ways, examples or metaphors that might help explain the difference in perception, id live to hear them. #Autistic #Perception #Neurodiversity

Also some theories talk of hypo priors, Pellegrino I think that is, but it very negative and evidence for it is lacking, there is evidence for similar or heightened priors dependant on context, but not hypo priors. Bayesian brain is another term exploring it. Hope that helps you explore more.

You'll also find work by Andy ward I think within philosophy. And described as gestalt processing also in other places. Olga B. Book describes it here language is not great. This relates to it. There's lot of different terms talking about very similar things.

Jessica K Doyle @jessicakdoyle.bsky.social · 14/12/2024

Specifically in Autistic neurology there's a bit but it tends to be all really pathological language so you've got to be okay with manually neutralising the language as you go through it. Then you could look up Van De Cruys HIPPEA model. Their second paper is less problematic. But still not great.

Jessica K Doyle @jessicakdoyle.bsky.social · 14/12/2024

If it the subject of predictive coding your interested in rather than specifically related to Autistic neurology then you could look of Karl Friths he talks about it in terms of the free energy principle and does some good YouTube the videos on it.

Its more so that the deep dive elaborates on the chapter I wrote in the book.

Word of the day is ‘forswunk’ (13th century): exhausted by work. I like to add ‘foreswunk’, exhausted before you even begin.

📌 There is also a version on my profile of my Film "When I grow up I want to be" which has no music for those who would like to watch it but find background music a barrier to #accessibility. I am the opposite and find music helps me explain and explore better. youtube.com/@jessicakdoy...

Trains by Jessica K Doyle Here is a poem which I wrote while waiting for the train after my first day of being back in college.

This short film 📽️ that I made, is an artistic, #Autistic, self-reflection of my #MH journey, #synesthesia cognition, the gamble of #suicide & growth from 11years to late 20s in finding space to be Real Me & the battle with “the mask/fake jess” to survive & thrive. youtu.be/2C85JfflixY?...
