Experimental paradigm. a Trial structure. After hearing a low or a high pitch tone, participants had to predict the rotation direction of a pair of dots, and then to report their percept. The two dots could either rotate in the expected or unexpected direction (unambiguous trials) or simply appear in their vertical and then horizontal position without rotating (ambiguous trials). b Example of a block structure. There was a probabilistic association between the tone and the rotation direction, which reversed every 16, 24 or 32 trials. For instance, the plot shows the probability of having a certain outcome (CCW or CW rotation, or no rotation) given that a high tone that was heard. CW clockwise, CCW counterclockwise, ITI inter-trial interval
