Properties of spatial attention in conscious and nonconscious visual information processing.
A modified flanker task was used to assess the effects of spatial attention during conscious and nonconscious processing. In line with prior findings, we demonstrated that increasing spatial separation between flankers and probes diminished the differences between reaction times to the incongruent and congruent probe-flanker pairs. This trend occurred even when the identity of flankers was supp...
متن کاملConscious and Nonconscious Processing of Visual Object Identity
Priming as implicit memory Recognizing a perceptual stimulus improves with familiarity. This experience specific facilitation is termed priming.In a typical priming experiment, subjects are initially exposed to a set of briefly presented stimuli in the prime block and their performance in naming, for example, is recorded (usually reaction times and correct responses). In a subsequent test block...
متن کاملNonconscious perception, conscious awareness and attention.
Because it is unclear how a nonconscious stimulus is cognitively processed, there is uncertainty concerning variables that modulate the processing. In this context recent findings of a set of neuroimaging experiments are important. These findings suggest that conscious and nonconscious stimuli activate same areas of the brain during performance of a similar task. Further, different areas are ac...
متن کاملThe role of spatial attention in nonconscious processing: a comparison of face and nonface stimuli.
Recent findings from the masked priming paradigm have revealed a surprising influence of higher-level cognitive systems (i.e., attention) on nonconscious cognitive processes. These data have effectively undermined the long-standing assumption in cognitive science that nonconscious processes are carried out independently of attention and have quickly led to the opposite view that attention is a ...
متن کاملFunctional hierarchies of nonconscious visual processing
A number of psychophysical techniques can be used to eliminate the registration of stimuli in visual awareness and to study the dynamics of conscious and nonconscious information processing in the visual system. However, little is known about how these techniques relate to each other. We chose to compare binocular rivalry, induced by orthogonal gratings presented separately to the two eyes, and...
