Rapid changes in visual-spatial attention distort object shape
Shifts of attention due to rapid cue onsets have been shown to distort the perceived location of objects, but are there also systematic distortions in the perceived shapes of the objects themselves from such shifts? The present study demonstrates that there are. In three experiments, oval contours were presented that varied in width and height. Two brief, bright white dots were presented as cue...
متن کاملIllusions can warp visual space.
Our perception of the space around us is not veridical. It has been reported that the systematic errors in our perception of visual space can be described by a reasonably well-behaving space (the resulting space is approximately projective and complies with an affine geometry). The evidence for this is that the perceived centre of a set of points is independent of the order of the steps taken t...
متن کاملCan Stigma Still Distort the Spectrum of a Disease?
We are witnessing an influx of social scientists’ articles in the public health area. Numerous requests from researchers and readers in public health communities in Korea have continuously knocked on the door of PHRP. We are happy to reflect their hope shining in this issue and believe that this will give our readers more reading flavor to their taste. Researchers of HIV/AIDS in Korea are in a ...
متن کاملCan RNA selection pressure distort the measurement of Ka/Ks?
Recently, an interesting question has emerged in the evolutionary interpretation of sequence substitution data as evidence of amino acid selection pressure. Specifically, the Ka/Ks metric was designed to measure selection pressure on amino acid substitutions, assuming that the synonymous substitution rate Ks reflects the neutral nucleotide substitution rate. However, there is increasing evidenc...
متن کاملSpatial Attention can Bias Search in Visual Short-Term Memory
Whereas top-down attentional control is known to bias perceptual functions at many levels of stimulus analysis, its possible influence over memory-related functions remains uncharted. Our experiment combined behavioral measures and event-related potentials (ERPs) to test the ability of spatial orienting to bias functions associated with visual short-term memory (VSTM), and to shed light on the ...
