New in Behavior Research Methods: Eye-tracking studies depend on automatic detectors to segment gaze into fixations and saccades. Most labs stick to their "standard" detection method, but how much does that choice matter? TL;DR: It matters a lot. 🔗 doi.org/10.3758/s134...

New in Psychological Science! We've been studying visual non-conscious prioritization processes for decades, but not a lot is known about non-conscious speech processing. Does it conform to the same principles, despite the very different way it functions? #consciousness #psychscisky #PsychSky

Wonderful and inspiring opening session at the CIFAR/TWCF Winter School for the Neuroscience of Consciousness, here in beautiful wintery Montebello, in Quebec. All of the participants gave 60 second intros to themselves and their interests. What a great group of people.

First paper is now out in Cortex! We find behavioral and neural evidence for non-conscious speech processing, using a new dual-task paradigm that creates repetitive occurrences of in attentional deafness without masking or degrading stimuli. @deouell.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Neural markers of speech processing during inattentional deafness☆

Cognitive scientists have long debated the capabilities of non-conscious perception, defined as the level of processing of external stimuli that peopl…

It was a pleasure to present my poster @assc28.bsky.social! If you're working with eye tracking data, take a look at our python package, pEYES - built for eye movement detection and algorithm evaluation.
