Figure 3. Influence of conscious reliance on the cue on the strength of modality-specific expectancy effects (three-way interaction).

Figure 3

(A) Reliance on the cue, as measured in the post-experimental debrief, is plotted against the strength of the three-way interaction Cue Unpleasantness*Cue Modality*Stimulus Modality, which reflects stronger expectancy effects (cH > cL) in consistent (same modality) as opposed to inconsistent (different modality) medium trials. Higher values on the vertical axis refer to participants who ignored the cue most of the time. Higher values on the horizontal axis refer to stronger modality-specific cue effects. For visualization purposes of the covariate effect, we display (B) the unpleasantness ratings for half of the participants who ignored most the cues (defined through median split of the individual covariate values) and (C) the half who relied mostly in them. Axis and bar codes in subplots B and C are similar to those in Fig. 2.
