🚨Paper alert🚨 Here we try to tackle the tricky problem of measuring the inherently private experiences of visual imagery. Now out and open access in Cortex: doi.org/10.1016/j.co... @heidasigurdar.bsky.social @arnig.bsky.social #imagery #visualimagery #visionscience #psychology #cogsci #aphantasia

🚨Preprint Alert🚨and Thread 🧵 The Visual Imagery Visually Anchored Scale (VIVAS) reveals dissociable perceptual dimensions and category-specific structure: osf.io/preprints/ps... Authors: @heidasigurdar.bsky.social, Árnason, Mäekalle, Vésteinsdóttir, @arnig.bsky.social 1/9

New Paper! w. Léa Entzmann and Árni Kristjánsson TL;DR: Endpoint deviations are determined by current target-previous distractor difference, but do not reflect the shape of the previous distractor distribution. Saccadic latencies do reflect these distributions. jov.arvojournals.org/Article.aspx...

Summary of @khvo100v.bsky.social (Vlad's) excellent work on a novel method for probing ensemble perception (published in PB&R)

We're hiring! The University of Akureyri is seeking a specialist in psychology. Applicants from all areas of psychology are welcome to apply.

New paper by @icevislab.bsky.social graduate Dr. Aleksei Iakovlev w. @khvo100v.bsky.social , @utochkin.bsky.social and Árni Kristjánsson. link.springer.com/article/10.3...

What does our conscious perception of this set of berries consist of? If you heard about Ensemble perception, you could say: “It’s too much info for our poor attention/working memory systems, so instead of storing all the individual features, people just represent the average and variability.” 1/5

Hot off the press: Vlad Khvostov's work at the @icevislab.bsky.social on how the Feature Frequency Report method reveals rich and explicit representations of feature distributions. doi.org/10.3758/s134...

Just cancelled my #vss2025 hotel booking. It's sad that the anticipation of social and intellectual stimulation has been overshadowed by uncertainty about academic freedom, science funding in the US, and anxiety about how the next executive order might affect my travel plans #visionscience #resist

ENDILEGA DEILA Viltu taka þátt í rannsókn? Þráður 🧵 Upplifir þú liti þegar þú horfir á bókstafi? Ef þú ert eins og manneskjan til hægri þá upplifir þú fyrirbæri sem nefnist samskynjun. Til að geta rannsakað fyrirbærið þurfum við gögn frá fólki MEÐ og ÁN samskynjunar. 1/5

New IVL paper by Léa Entzmann et al. Feature distribution learning measured by manual and saccadic responses. Spoiler: Results essentially the same across response modalities suggesting attentional orienting - not decisional - effects of FDL. Mandatory shoutout to @achetverikov.bsky.social
