  text: If one of two events is attended to, it will be perceived earlier than a simultaneously
    occurring unattended event. Since 150 years, this effect has been ascribed to
    the facilitating influence of attention, also known as prior entry. Yet, the attentional
    origin of prior-entry effects¹ has been repeatedly doubted. One criticism is that
    prior-entry effects might be due to biased decision processes that would mimic
    a temporal advantage for attended stimuli. Although most obvious biases have already
    been excluded experimentally (e.g. judgment criteria, response compatibility)
    and prior-entry effects have shown to persist (Shore, Spence, & Klein, 2001),
    many other biases are conceivable, which makes it difficult to put the debate
    to an end. Thus, we approach this problem the other way around by asking whether
    prior-entry effects can be biased voluntarily. Observers were informed about prior
    entry and instructed to reduce it as far as possible. For this aim they received
    continuous feedback

  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 '
