Reposted by Stijn NuitenNicolás Sánchez-Fuenzalida @n41c0.bsky.social · 21/07/2026well on time for my bi-yearly post I'm sharing the final version of this very cool work we started with @cjungerius.bsky.social @smfleming.bsky.social @svangaal.bsky.social @fahrenfort.bsky.social in 2021, when I was young and full of hope. Now out in @natcomms.nature.com 1/11nature.comThe act of detecting a stimulus contaminates measures of conscious experience with decision biases - Nature CommunicationsA central challenge in consciousness research is determining whether people truly experience a stimulus. Here, the authors show that context biases traditional detection measures, whereas continuous r... 35224

Stijn Nuiten @stijnnuiten.bsky.social · 19/05/2025⚠️ Come see our new preprint, in which we (@degeelab.bsky.social, Jasper Zantvoord, @psterzer.bsky.social, @fahrenfort.bsky.social & @svangaal.bsky.social) show that phasic (task-evoked) and tonic (baseline) arousal distinctly shape human decision bias! (1/6) dx.doi.org/10.21203/rs....researchsquare.comPhasic and tonic arousal distinctly shape human decision biasNeuroscientific theories hypothesize that arousal fluctuations influence human perception and behavior in two functionally distinct ways: through variations in baseline state (tonic arousal) and by tr... 1106
