The paper investigates how feature-based attention interacts with prediction, finding that attention's effect is stronger for surprising stimuli than predicted ones.

This study investigates how attention affects neural encoding of prediction errors using EEG data from a visual task, finding that attention enhances the encoding of mismatch information in response to surprising stimuli.

The paper investigates how emotion and expectation interact in conscious perception by examining responses to neutral and fearful faces under different probability conditions using bCFS.

The paper tests predictive coding theory by showing that unexpected visual stimuli enhance orientation selectivity, while repeated stimuli show suppression, indicating distinct effects of prediction error and repetition.

This study shows spatial attention enhances neural representation of both visible and invisible signals in noise, extending previous findings on attention and awareness dissociation.
