Texture fading correlates with stimulus salience
Perceptual fading of texture targets on similarly textured backgrounds was studied in relation to stimulus salience using texture patterns defined by orientation contrast, shape contrast, and order contrast. In two independent experiments, perceptual salience of the targets was determined. In the first, the textural contrast of the stimuli was varied and their salience quantified using magnitud...
متن کاملDiscrimination learning with variable stimulus 'salience'
BACKGROUND In nature, sensory stimuli are organized in heterogeneous combinations. Salient items from these combinations 'stand-out' from their surroundings and determine what and how we learn. Yet, the relationship between varying stimulus salience and discrimination learning remains unclear. PRESENTATION OF THE HYPOTHESIS A rigorous formulation of the problem of discrimination learning shou...
متن کاملTask-irrelevant stimulus salience affects visual search
The relative contributions of stimulus salience and task-related goals in guiding attention remain an issue of debate. Several studies have demonstrated that top-down factors play an important role, as they often override capture by salient irrelevant objects. However, Yantis and Egeth [Yantis, S., & Egeth, H. E. (1999). On the distinction between visual salience and stimulus-driven attentional...
متن کاملSalience from feature contrast: variations with texture density
The salience of popout targets was measured in regular line arrays as a function of texture density. Test targets (singletons with orientation, motion, or luminance contrast) presented at different raster widths were compared with reference lines (lines brighter than surrounding lines) presented at fixed raster width. The luminance at which the reference target appeared as salient as the partic...
متن کاملNeural Correlates of Stimulus Reportability
Most experiments on the "neural correlates of consciousness" employ stimulus reportability as an operational definition of what is consciously perceived. The interpretation of such experiments therefore depends critically on understanding the neural basis of stimulus reportability. Using a high volume of fMRI data, we investigated the neural correlates of stimulus reportability using a partial ...
