The flow diagram depicts the sequence of sensorimnemonic decisions in our VR Object copying task. a The pick-up of the first object is followed by a location-related decision (i.e., Place object using memory or re-fixate model?). b If participants place the object using memory, placement is followed by an identity-related decision (i.e., Pick-up a second object or re-fixate model?). c If memory was used again, a second location-related decision would follow. Error bars depict standard error of the mean (a and b: N = 30, c: N = 28). Identity and location errors at different moments of behavioural sequences. Error bars depict standard error of the mean (d and e: N = 30, f and g: N = 28). All plots and analyses are based on the high movement effort condition. Lines show individual participant data. N shows the number of sensorimnemonic decisions or pick-ups/ placements included in the analyses. The symbols *, **, and *** in the figure denote statistical significance with p-values less than 0.05, 0.01, and 0.001, respectively.
