Eye contact captures attention and receives prioritized visual processing. Here we asked whether eye contact might be processed outside conscious awareness. Faces with direct and averted gaze were rendered invisible using interocular suppression. In two experiments we found that faces with direct gaze overcame such suppression more rapidly than faces with averted gaze. Control experiments ruled...
متن کاملLearning of monocular information facilitates breakthrough to awareness during interocular suppression.
Continuous flash suppression (CFS) is a potent method of inducing binocular rivalry, wherein a rapid succession of high-contrast images presented to one eye effectively blocks from awareness a low-contrast image presented to the other eye. Here we addressed whether the contents of the suppressed image can break through to awareness with extended CFS exposure. On 2/3 of the trials, we presented ...
متن کاملOwn-race and own-age biases facilitate visual awareness of faces under interocular suppression
The detection of a face in a visual scene is the first stage in the face processing hierarchy. Although all subsequent, more elaborate face processing depends on the initial detection of a face, surprisingly little is known about the perceptual mechanisms underlying face detection. Recent evidence suggests that relatively hard-wired face detection mechanisms are broadly tuned to all face-like v...
متن کاملEye gaze adaptation under interocular suppression.
The perception of eye gaze is central to social interaction in that it provides information about another person's goals, intentions, and focus of attention. Direction of gaze has been found to reflexively shift the observer's attention in the corresponding direction, and prolonged exposure to averted eye gaze adapts the visual system, biasing perception of subsequent gaze in the direction oppo...
متن کاملJournal Section: Behavior/systems/cognitive Title: Semantic Analysis Does Not Occur in the Absence of Awareness Induced by Interocular Suppression Abbreviated Title: No Semantic Processing during Interocular Suppression
No conflict of interest Acknowledgement We thank Hyeon-Ae Jeon, Timothy McNamara and Edward Vogel for contributing to the list of related words. He provided crucial input during this project and the preparation of the manuscript. Abstract It has been intensely debated whether visual stimuli are processed to the point of semantic analysis in the absence of awareness. In the present study, we mea...
