Violin plots showing points earned by the ideal observer for 3 targets (rows) for different levels of prior strength (columns), as a function of semantic congruence. Low values for prior strength simulated a strong reliance on recent experience, while high values simulated a strong reliance on prior beliefs. Each violin plot corresponds to N = 500 simulated trials. White circles indicate the mean and error bars represent \(\pm 1\) standard deviation
