However, several researchers have found evidence that under appropriate circumstances, attention may be allocated to noncontiguous locations (e.g., Awn & Pashler, 2000; Bichot, Cave, & Pashler, 1999; Kramer & Hahn, 1995). In the present experiments, the spatial distribution of attention was assessed by a novel method, perceptual latency priming: the latency benefit of an attended visual stimulus, as compared with a nonattended stimulus. Experiment 1 assessed whether observers are able to attend to two nonadjacent regions or a region of variable size. Experiment 2 tested whether, when two distant locations are attended to, the region between them is necessarily also in the focus of attention. Two further experiments controlled for objections against the method used and replicated the main results of the first two experiments. The experiments showed a robust attentional pr","lang":"eng"}],"keyword":["visuospatial attention","priming paradigm","spatial distribution","Adult","Attention","Female","Humans","Male","Attention","Priming","Spatial Perception","Visuospatial Ability"],"date_created":"2018-12-10T07:03:45Z","publication_status":"published","issue":"6","page":"988 - 1002"}
