Schematic of behavioral task and predictions. A, During encoding, participants were presented with lists of 25 images and instructed to remember their order. Images were either celebrity faces, for which participants made likability judgments, or objects, for which participants made commonality judgments. B, Following a distractor task, participants were presented with pairs of images and were instructed to select the image that had been presented more recently (R2, arrows) and indicate their confidence. The main conditions of interest were no switch (blue), which came from sequences of same-category items, and switch (orange), which came from sequences that had intervening context switches.
