Experimental conditions.

# Condition name Goal Prior stimulus and task features
Biased feature Discriminated feature (relevant to test) Circle color Response keys
1 Baseline (A and B) Test serial dependence of location discrimination Location Location (✔) White Left/right
2 Color invariant Test serial dependence when prior and test stimuli differ in an undiscriminated physical attribute (color) Location Location (✔) Green/purple Left/right
3 Response invariant Test serial dependence when discriminations for prior and test stimuli are reported using different responses Location Location (✔) Green/purple Up/down
4 Response inhibition Test whether response reporting is necessary for serial dependence to occur Location Location (✔) White None
5 Alternative feature Test serial dependence on prior actions that report irrelevant choices Color Color (✘) Green/purple Left/right
6 Undiscriminated Test serial dependence on low-level sensory information Location Color (✘) Green/purple Left/right

✔Indicates that the priors task was relevant to the test task (both were location discrimination).

✘Indicates that the priors task (color discrimination) was irrelevant to the test task (location discrimination).
