A new method for analyzing continuous psychophysics experiments estimates not only perceptual uncertainty from tracking tasks but also action variability, intrinsic costs, and subjective internal models.

Psychophysics experiments and EEG recordings reveal that people's performance in detecting unexpected changes in complex auditory scenes can be modeled as a process of sensory evidence accumulation.
Humans and other animals have different strategies for extracting the pitch of sounds, potentially driven by the species-specific frequency selectivity of the ear.

Looking away from a salient visual stimulus pits the reflexive urge to look toward it against the voluntary intention not to, and this conflict is resolved within tens of milliseconds.

High-resolution foveal imaging and micro-psychophysics reveal that the human oculomotor system finely adjusts drift motion of the eye in an acuity task to enhance retinal sampling, achieving sub-cell resolution.
Psychophysical experiments and computational modeling demonstrate the importance of transient, instead of sustained, channels for the integration of audiovisual signals.
