P-31: Selective Attention Effects on Binocular Rivalry to Simple and Complex Dynamic Imagery
نویسندگان
چکیده
Selective attention increased the proportion of time that the attended members of a pair of either simple (gratings) or more complex (movie clips) dichoptic stimuli were visible during binocular rivalry. Lower-level stimulus attributes appear to be more important than meaningfulness in directing attention, which is a finding that may have relevance to the design of head-worn displays.

Selective Attention Effects on Binocular Rivalry to Simple and Complex Dynamic Imagery

متن کاملDifferential effects of visual attention and working memory on binocular rivalry.
The investigation of cognitive influence on binocular rivalry has a long history. However, the effects of visual WM on rivalry have never been studied so far. We examined top-down modulation of rivalry perception in four experiments to compare the effects of visual WM and sustained selective attention: In the first three experiments we failed to observe any sustained effect of the WM content; o...
متن کاملPerceptual training profoundly alters binocular rivalry through both sensory and attentional enhancements.
The effects of attention, as well as its functional utility, are particularly prominent when selecting among multiple stimuli that compete for processing resources. However, existing studies have found that binocular rivalry-a phenomenon characterized by perceptual competition between incompatible stimuli presented to the two eyes-is only modestly influenced by selective attention. Here, we dem...
متن کاملAfrl-he-az-tp-2007-06 Binocular Rivalry and Attention in Helmet-mounted Display Applications
As monocular head-mounted displays (HMDs) are introduced into existing flight simulators for training and mission rehearsal it will be important to determine whether binocular rivalry affects the visibility of HMD presented symbology or the out-the-window (OTW) flight simulator display imagery. In the present study, we examined whether rivalry suppression could be objectively measured under con...
متن کاملWhen can attention influence binocular rivalry?
Attentional influence over perception is particularly pronounced when sensory stimulation is ambiguous, where attention can reduce stimulus uncertainty and promote a stable interpretation of the world. However, binocular rivalry, an extensively studied visual ambiguity, has proved to be comparatively resistant to attentional modulation. We hypothesize that this apparent inconsistency reflects f...
