Humans treat unreliable filled-in percepts as more real than veridical ones

2016-07-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Humans often evaluate sensory signals according to their reliability for optimal decision-making. However, how do we evaluate percepts generated in the absence of direct input that are, therefore, completely unreliable? Here, we utilize the phenomenon of filling-in occurring at the physiological blind-spots to compare partially inferred and veridical percepts. Subjects chose between stimuli that...
