The most exciting moments in sports are often linked to surprise, an unexpected change of circumstances that abruptly shifts the anticipated outcome of the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Princeton neuroscientist James Antony decided to capitalize on these moments to study how human brains process surprise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re trying to figure out how people update their understanding of things that are occurring in the real world, based on how events unfold over time \u2014 how they set up these contextually-based predictions, and what happens when those are confirmed or contradicted,\u201d said Antony, a CV Starr Fellow in Neuroscience and the first author on a paper published today\u00a0in the journal Neuron<\/em>. ..
