  text: Selective visual attention improves performance in many tasks. Among others,
    it leads to 'prior entry'—earlier perception of an attended compared to an unattended
    stimulus. Whether this phenomenon is purely based on an increase of the processing
    rate of the attended stimulus or if a decrease in the processing rate of the unattended
    stimulus also contributes to the effect is, up to now, unanswered. Here we describe
    a novel approach to this question based on Bundesen’s Theory of Visual Attention,
    which we use to overcome the limitations of earlier prior-entry assessment with
    temporal order judgments (TOJs) that only allow relative statements regarding
    the processing speed of attended and unattended stimuli. Prevalent models of prior
    entry in TOJs either indirectly predict a pure acceleration or cannot model the
    difference between acceleration and deceleration. In a paradigm that combines
    a letter-identification task with TOJs, we show that indeed acceleration of the

  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: 'According to the concept of direct parameter specification, nonconsciously
    registered information can be processed to the extent that it matches currently
    active intentions of a person. This prediction was tested and confirmed in the
    current study. Masked visual information provided by peripheral cues led to reaction
    time (RT) effects only if the information specified one of the required responses
    (Experiments 1 and 3). Information delivered by the same masked cues that did
    not match the intentions was not used. However, the same information influenced
    RT if it was provided by visible cues (Experiments 2 and 3). The results suggest
    that the processing of nonconsciously registered information is flexible because
    it is susceptible to the changing intentions of a person. Yet, these processes
    are apparently restricted as nonconsciously registered information cannot be used
    as easily for purposes not corresponding to the currently active intentions as
    better visible information. (PsycINFO '
