Wanyi Lyu; Jennifer S. Trueblood; Jeremy M. Wolfe – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2025
Low target prevalence affects perceptual decisions on both simple and complex stimuli. Without prior knowledge of how often targets may appear, trial-by-trial accuracy feedback modulates the effects of low prevalence partially by providing observers with information about the target base rate. Using simple colored dots, Lyu (PBR 28:1906-1914,…

The Message Matters: Changes to Binary Computer Aided Detection Recommendations Affect Cancer Detection in Low Prevalence Search
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Francesca Patterson; Melina A. Kunar – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2024
Computer Aided Detection (CAD) has been used to help readers find cancers in mammograms. Although these automated systems have been shown to help cancer detection when accurate, the presence of CAD also leads to an over-reliance effect where miss errors and false alarms increase when the CAD system fails. Previous research investigated CAD systems…
