A neural-based account of sequential bias during perceptual judgment

Sequential effects are prominent and pervasive phenomena that exist in most perceptual judgments. Of importance, these reflect dynamic aspects our judgment bias induced by the recent context. When making successive judgments response to a sequence of stimuli, two opposing consequences have frequently been observed: assimilation – current stimuli judged as being closer preceding than they actually are, contrast further from are. Although several cognitive accounts previously proposed, there is still lack consensus on underlying mechanism, particularly regarding insights temporal dynamics. Building upon accumulating human M/EEG findings, I propose framework explain how sequential generated, unfolded over time, eventually incorporated into formation biased judgment. By bringing biologically plausible framework, this synthetic view could account for differentially evolve, distinguish other with similar behavioral outcomes (such aftereffects priming), illuminate adaptively adjusted under impact
