The distributions of responses, both aggregated and separate for each observer, followed the shape of the presented distribution. Thus, after only brief exposure to a color set, the visual system builds detailed representations of feature distributions that observers have explicit access to. 4/5

In our new paradigm (Feature Frequency Report), observers viewed 36 disks of various colors for 800 ms and then reported the frequency of a randomly chosen color using a slider. The sets had Gaussian, uniform, or bimodal color distributions with a random mean color. 3/5
