After errors, decision boundaries change, which results in post-error slowing of decisions. Purcell and Kiani (2016) report simultaneously decreased sensitivity to sensory information counteracts post-error increases in accuracy. Early post-error adjustments reflect a general orienting reflex rather than goal-directed adaptation.
