  text: 'In the direct parameter specification (DPS) mode of sensorimotor control,
    response parameters can be specified by stimuli that are not consciously perceived
    [Psychological Research/Psychologische Forschung 52 (1990) 207]. DPS is contingent
    on the current intentions. The invisible stimuli can be processed for the purposes
    of sensorimotor control only if they match the actual intentions, for example,
    share task-relevant features. The present experiments explore whether attentional
    capture by masked abrupt-onset stimuli is mediated via DPS. Participants judged
    which of two visual targets appeared first. Masked primes preceded one of the
    targets. The primes were either similar to the targets or not, in shape, or in
    color. Target-like (task-relevant), but not distractor-like (task-irrelevant),
    primes facilitated perceptual latencies of targets trailing at their positions.
    Thus, the latency effects resulted from DPS of an attention shift, rather than
    from bottom-up capture or from top-down '
