    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "The cognitive system readily learns when multiple cues\njointly predict a specific outcome. What is less known is how\nthe mind generates predictions when only a single cue is\npresent. In four experiments, participants were first exposed\nto two objects followed by a circle with a specific size or a\nspecific numeric value. Afterwards, participants viewed a\nsingle object and estimated the associated size or value.\nFinally, participants recalled the size or value that followed\nthe initial two objects. We found that the estimated size\nassociated with the single object was significantly smaller\nthan 100% but significantly larger than 50% of the recalled\nsize associated with the two objects. No participants were\nconsciously aware of the associations. The results reveal a\nnew consequence of statistical learning on automatic\ninferences: When multiple objects were previously associated\nwith an outcome, the single object is implicitly expected to\npredict a subadditive outcome.",
