In such cases, people can switch their attention to perceive the stimulus in either way, though they typically cannot maintain both interpretations in awareness simultaneously. The abundance of evidence demonstrating multistable perception in the visual and auditory modalities can be contrasted with the scarcity, if not absence, of studies reporting similar phenomena in the chemical senses (primarily olfaction and gustation), prompting an intriguing question about this apparent qualitative difference between the senses. This paper seeks to address this question by first briefly reviewing multistable perceptual phenomena in vision and audition to underscore their defining features. We then assess the limited body of research that has occasionally linked multistability to the chemical senses. While a few studies suggest loose analogies between olfactory perception and visual or auditory multistability, no compelling evidence exists for such phenomena in taste. We argue that this absence is unlikely to be explained by any single factor. Rather, it appears to stem from a confluence of constraints, including the lack of spatio-temporal structure and intrinsic dimensionality in chemosensory stimuli, as well as their distinct evolutionary functions and cognitive framing. Together, these factors may help to explain why multistable perceptual experiences seem not to emerge in the chemical senses.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51358,"journal":{"name":"Consciousness and Cognition","volume":"132 ","pages":"Article 103875"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143912160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many contextual and individual difference variables have been found to influence the SoA. Here, we focused on elucidating the potential relationship between psychosocial stress and the SoA across two studies. Psychosocial stress was induced via the Trier Social Stress Test (TSST) and agency was assessed in a task involving production of a voluntary action that resulted in an auditory effect 100 ms, 400 ms or 700 ms later. In Study 1, we used an explicit self-reported measure of agency in the form of a perception of control rating, and in Study 2 we used an implicit measure of agency in the form of temporal estimates of the interval between an action and an effect, so called intentional binding (IB). The results of Study 1 (explicit) showed that undergoing the TSST relative to a control condition increased SoA for outcomes that occur after a 700 ms delay. However, this effect was weak and did not survive correction for multiple comparisons. In Study 2 (IB), temporal estimates in the stress condition were significantly shorter than those in the control condition, exclusively for action-effect time delays of 700 ms. We conclude that this increased IB for 700 ms delays after induction of psychosocial stress reflects a potential “stress-enabled agency boost”, and that such an agency boost might be associated with the fight-or-flight stress response. Directions for future research are suggested.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51358,"journal":{"name":"Consciousness and Cognition","volume":"131 ","pages":"Article 103872"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143887640","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our results indicate that specific performance feedback, and not general positive feedback, consistently improved performance, while neither impacted self-reported MW. Conversely, feedback on task progression and the feeling of being monitored increased self-reported MW, possibly reflecting participant self-awareness due to contextual distractions. Intriguingly, information relaying task progression also substantially increased performance. These findings highlight the potential of performance feedback to reduce the negative effects of MW on task performance in an online setting.
