Psychophysical “blinding” methods reveal a functional hierarchy of unconscious visual processing

BG Breitmeyer - Consciousness and Cognition, 2015 - Elsevier
Numerous non-invasive experimental “blinding” methods exist for suppressing the
phenomenal awareness of visual stimuli. Not all of these suppressive methods occur at, and …

[HTML][HTML] Substituting objects from consciousness: A review of object substitution masking

SC Goodhew, J Pratt, PE Dux, S Ferber - Psychonomic bulletin & review, 2013 - Springer
Object substitution masking (OSM) occurs when a sparse (eg, four-dot), temporally trailing
mask obscures the visibility of a briefly presented target. Here, we review theories of OSM …

[HTML][HTML] Probing feedforward and feedback contributions to awareness with visual masking and transcranial magnetic stimulation

E Tapia, DM Beck - Frontiers in psychology, 2014 - frontiersin.org
A number of influential theories posit that visual awareness relies not only on the initial,
stimulus-driven (ie, feedforward) sweep of activation but also on recurrent feedback activity …

[图书][B] Consciousness

R Carter - 2012 - books.google.com
A guide to the hardest problem in science: the nature of consciousness. Is consciousness
merely an illusion, a by-product of our brain's workings, or is it, as the latest physics may …

Objects with reduced visibility still contribute to size averaging

H Choo, SL Franconeri - Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics, 2010 - Springer
People can rapidly judge the average size of a collection of objects with considerable
accuracy. In this study, we tested whether this size-averaging process relies on relatively …

Attentional gating models of object substitution masking.

E Põder - 2013 - psycnet.apa.org
Abstract Di Lollo, Enns, and Rensink (2000) proposed the computational model of object
substitution (CMOS) to explain their experimental results with sparse visual maskers. This …

[图书][B] The visual (un) conscious and its (dis) contents: A microtemporal approach

BG Breitmeyer - 2014 - books.google.com
Visual control of our actions can be unconscious as well as conscious. For example, when a
pedestrian steps onto a street and then suddenly steps back, to avoid being hit by an …

Is the whole really more than the sum of its parts? Estimates of average size and orientation are susceptible to object substitution masking.

O Jacoby, MR Kamke, JB Mattingley - Journal of Experimental …, 2013 - psycnet.apa.org
We have a remarkable ability to accurately estimate average featural information across
groups of objects, such as their average size or orientation. It has been suggested that …

[HTML][HTML] Exogenous spatial precuing reliably modulates object processing but not object substitution masking

M Pilling, A Gellatly, Y Argyropoulos… - Attention, Perception, & …, 2014 - Springer
Object substitution masking (OSM) is used in behavioral and imaging studies to investigate
processes associated with the formation of a conscious percept. Reportedly, OSM occurs …

Early visual processing allows for selective behavior, shifts of attention, and conscious visual experience in spite of masking

SM Crouzet, LY Kovalenko, SH Del Pin… - Consciousness and …, 2017 - Elsevier
Object-substitution masking (OSM) occurs when a briefly displayed target in a search array
is surrounded by a mask, which remains onscreen after the target has disappeared. It has …
