Theories of consciousness using neurobiological data or being influenced by these data
have been focused either on states of consciousness or contents of consciousness. These …

The role of attention in visual awareness is a foundational issue for understanding
consciousness, but remains highly controversial. Therefore, in two experiments, we …

In our daily lives, the visual system receives a plethora of visual information that competes
for the brain's limited processing capacity. Nevertheless, not all visual information is useful …

To investigate whether language rules the visual features that can be discriminated (a
radical assumption of linguistic relativity), we examined crosslinguistic differences between …

Spatial crowding occurs when an object is cluttered among other objects in space and is a
ubiquitous factor affecting object recognition in the peripheral visual field. Crowding is …

自我相关刺激的加工优势体现于多种心理加工过程, 然而自我相关刺激是否具有意识通达的优先
性, 还需对以往研究进行系统梳理. 采用降级刺激强度, 视觉掩蔽, 双眼竞争, 连续闪烁抑制 …

To investigate the relation between attention and awareness, we manipulated
visibility/awareness and stimulus-driven attention capture among metacontrast-masked …

Our conscious awareness of visual events does not arise instantaneously. Previous studies
on backward masking have investigated dynamic internal processes making targets visible …

To efficiently use its finite resources, the visual system selects for further processing only a
subset of the rich sensory information. Visual masking and spatial attention control the …

It was long thought that a key characteristic of object substitution masking (OSM) was the
requirement for spatial attention to be dispersed for the mask to impact visual sensitivity …
