comment How to assess participant awareness of experimental deception without inducing awareness?
Did you have a look at change blindness studies (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Change_blindness)? Some of them should have faced the same problem.

comment Is learning to do a task automatically an example of intuition?
I do not understand the difference between "work at unconscious level of mind" and "stored in sub-conscious mind". Furthermore, please note that "sub-conscious" is not a construct you would use in cognitive psychology.

It might be helpful if you add some information about the nature of the test items (e.g., are they words lists, digits, pictures), how they are presented, and which response measures are recorded.

comment Is there a random walk theory that can account for situations with more than two choices?
@Artem Kaznatcheev: Many thanks for adding the links. Following your suggestion I added a short description of the model.

comment What explains variability in the mean firing rate across biological neurons?
comment continued: For the neuron, however, this is not necessarily true. Although increasing the firing rate by a factor of 10 results in 10 times more transmitted signals, this does not make sense for a "silent" neuron. For a neuron that does not fire, speeding up by a factor of 10 is simply not defined (probably because of the lack of discrete processing steps).

@Artem Kaznatcheev: Many thanks for your comment. Actually I fear that the processor analogy might not be very useful in this context. I agree with you: if the processing rate of a processor is increased by a factor of 10, the information transfer is ten times larger, regardless of whether "firing" or "no-firing" is signaled in a given processing step.
