<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Context effects are ubiquitous across sensory systems and reflect a general encoding principle for both simple and complex stimuli. One simple context effect, contraction bias, manifests in two-interval perception tasks as a bias of the perceived magnitude of the first stimulus toward the center of the overall magnitude range. The underlying cause of contraction bias is unclear. One explanation...
