  text: For almost three decades, the theory of visual attention (TVA) has been successful
    in mathematically describing and explaining a wide variety of phenomena in visual
    selection and recognition with high quantitative precision. Interestingly, the
    influence of feature contrast on attention has been included in TVA only recently,
    although it has been extensively studied outside the TVA framework. The present
    approach further develops this extension of TVA’s scope by measuring and modeling
    salience. An empirical measure of salience is achieved by linking different (orientation
    and luminance) contrasts to a TVA parameter. In the modeling part, the function
    relating feature contrasts to salience is described mathematically and tested
    against alternatives by Bayesian model comparison. This model comparison reveals
    that the power function is an appropriate model of salience growth in the dimensions
    of orientation and luminance contrast. Furthermore, if contrasts from the two
    dimensions are comb

  text: In three experiments, we tested whether sequentially coding two visual stimuli
    can create a spatial misperception of a visual moving stimulus. In Experiment
    1, we showed that a spatial misperception, the flash-lag effect, is accompanied
    by a similar temporal misperception of first perceiving the flash and only then
    a change of the moving stimulus, when in fact the two events were exactly simultaneous.
    In Experiment 2, we demonstrated that when the spatial misperception of a flash-lag
    effect is absent, the temporal misperception is also absent. In Experiment 3,
    we extended these findings and showed that if the stimulus conditions require
    coding first a flash and subsequently a nearby moving stimulus, a spatial flash-lag
    effect is found, with the position of the moving stimulus being misperceived as
    shifted in the direction of its motion, whereas this spatial misperception is
    reversed so that the moving stimulus is misperceived as shifted in a direction
    opposite to its motion when the c

  text: 'When two targets are presented in rapid succession, the first target (T1)
    is usually identified, but the second target (T2) is often missed. A remarkable
    exception to this ''attentional blink'' occurs when T2 immediately follows the
    first T1, at lag 1. It is then often spared but reported in the wrong order—that
    is, before T1. These order reversals have led to the hypothesis that ''lag 1 sparing''
    occurs because the two targets merge into a single episodic representation. Here,
    we report evidence consistent with an alternative theory: T2 receives more attention
    than T1, leading to prior entry into working memory. Two experiments showed that
    the more T2 performance exceeded that for T1, the more order reversals were made.
    Furthermore, precuing T1 led to a shift in performance benefits from T2 to T1
    and to an equivalent reduction in order reversals. We conclude that it is not
    necessary to assume episodic integration to explain lag 1 sparing or the accompanying
    order reversals. (PsycINFO Dat'
