Effects of prevalence and feedback in the identification of blast cells in peripheral blood: expert and novice observers

Cognitive Research
Low target prevalence affects perceptual decisions on both simple and complex stimuli. Without prior knowledge of how often targets may appear, trial-by-trial accuracy feedback modulates the effects of low prevalence partially by providing observers with
