Backward masking suppresses collinear facilitation in the visual cortex
Perceptual facilitation in detecting low-contrast Gabor patches (GPs) is induced by collinearly oriented high-contrast flankers. Our recent Visual Evoked Potentials (VEPs) study provided new physiological evidence for these collinear interactions, reflected by nonlinear modulation of multiple waveform components and frequencies [Sterkin, A., Yehezkel, O., Bonneh, Y. S., Norcia, A., & Polat, U. ...
متن کاملSalient collinear grouping diminishes local salience in visual search: an eye movement study.
Our eyes and attention are easily attracted to salient items in search displays. When a target is spatially overlapped with a salient distractor (overlapping target), it is usually detected more easily than when it is not (nonoverlapping target). Jingling and Tseng (2013), however, found that a salient distractor impaired visual search when the distractor was comprised of more than nine bars co...
متن کاملA Salient and Task-Irrelevant Collinear Structure Hurts Visual Search
Salient distractors draw our attention spontaneously, even when we intentionally want to ignore them. When this occurs, the real targets close to or overlapping with the distractors benefit from attention capture and thus are detected and discriminated more quickly. However, a puzzling opposite effect was observed in a search display with a column of vertical collinear bars presented as a task-...
متن کاملThe roles of mask luminance and perceptual grouping in visual backward masking.
Visual backward masking is a commonly used technique in vision research and psychology. There are two distinct types of masking. Either masking is strongest for a simultaneous presentation of the target and the mask (A-type masking) or masking is strongest when the mask trails the target (B-type masking). To account for the two types of masking, a variety of explanations have been put forward t...
متن کاملEffects of set-size and lateral masking in visual search.
In the present research, the roles of lateral masking and central processing limitations in visual search were studied. Two search conditions were used: (1) target differed from distractors by presence/absence of a simple feature; (2) target differed by relative position of the same components only. The number of displayed stimuli (set-size) and the distance between neighbouring stimuli were va...
