We tentatively suggest that these localization errors – which were accompanied by a high subjective confidence in the response and confined to a short window of proximity to the cue - reflect intrinsic spatial limits on the attentional resolution system and the allocation of top-down control [49] [51].
Otherwise, the study participants, managers and facility staff, showed a high subjective confidence level for these skills (56%and58%8% for data interpretation and information use, respectively), as well as strong perceptions that the health department promotes the use of information (78%).
Here we show that post-learning sleep favors the selectivity of long-term consolidation: when tested three months after initial encoding, the most important (i.e., rewarded, strongly encoded) memories are better retained, and also remembered with higher subjective confidence.
In the new formulation in the Abstract, we show that post-learning sleep favors the selectivity of long-term consolidation: when tested three months after initial encoding, the most important (i.e. rewarded, strongly encoded) memories are better retained, and also remembered with higher subjective confidence.
We refer to the error trials in which the subjective confidence score is within the highest 25% percentile as high-confidence errors (green trace) and similarly as low-confidence errors to the error trials in which the subjective confidence score is in the lowest 25% percentile (blue trace).
We found a marked double dissociation between objective response and subjective confidence: instances in which subjects systematically responded correctly at very low confidence and others in which subjects responded systematically incorrectly with very high confidence in their response.
Following this, the participant is asked to indicate: (a) subjective confidence of having seen a face (low, medium, or high), and (b) which face he thinks he saw from three forced choices (target, distractor, or no face).
In the high fidelity clinical simulation environment, we observed a clear relationship between nurses' subjective confidence ratings and accuracy in their risk assessments: experienced nurses were generally overconfident, while student nurses tended toward underconfidence.
The mutual information increases substantially with the subjective confidence report (ANOVA, F3, 3 = 14.29, P = 0.0275) but even at high levels of confidence it reaches value close to 2 bits indicating that, on average, the "resolution" of a high confidence report is of about three positions (67° of the array).

The subjective confidence in moving the phantom hand was different among patients (Supplementary Table 1).
