Elizabeth Pellicano, a leader in this movement, calls ‘experience-based expertise’.

while we may use logic to reason ourselves toward a decision, the actual decision making is governed by emotion.

As with all predictive perception, this best guessing is achieved through a brain-based process of prediction error minimization.

perceive ourselves as stable over time in part because of a self-fulfilling prior expectation that our physiological condition is restricted to a particular range,

We now know that the effects of priming can reach into every corner of our lives.

Without conditional predictions of this kind, there would be no way for the brain to know which action, among countless possible actions, would be most likely to reduce sensory prediction errors.
