Yesterday at #ICON2025 I got to present our poster with #EttoreAmbrosini, @palencianoap.bsky.social, and @mruz.bsky.social on flexible task representations. I loved the chance to share our preliminary results and hear such thoughtful feedback!

Finally, estimated trial-by-trial PEs from participants’ responses behaved similarly as insight experiences (Kullback-Leibler Divergence).
Recent research proposed a relationship between insight experiences and the resolution of prediction errors (PEs) during sudden performance increases. So, more incorrect predictions, more intense insights?
Not quite! Bayesian inference highlights the role of the (un)certainty of predictions.
🚨Preprint! “Bayesian surprise tracks the strength of perceptual insight” - Work with @lindedomingo.bsky.social & @gonzalezgarcia.bsky.social
Ever wondered what factors influence the subjective experience of suddenly understanding a previously unclear input?
