How do priors influence speech processing? Do they enhance expected signals or highlight the unexpected (prediction errors)? @fabianschneider.bsky.social' s work shows: It depends!
Same sound, different perception: Do expectations change what you hear?👂🧠

We paired faces w topics and played the same ambiguous speech w different faces. The brain sharpened sensory signals toward predictions and showed gated prediction errors at higher levels.

Sensory sharpening and semantic prediction errors unify competing models of predictive processing in human speech comprehension
Speech comprehension relies on predictive mechanisms, but models disagree on whether the brain prioritizes expected or unexpected information. This study shows that sharpening of sensory representatio...
