Schwarz, Wolf; Eiselt, Anne-Kathrin – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2009
R. Sekuler, P. Tynan, and E. Levinson (1973) found that when 2 characters are presented side-by-side with a short onset asynchrony, subjectively they often appear in a "first-left, then-right" order. The authors of this article conducted 6 experiments in which observers judged the temporal order (TOJs) in which 2 digits were presented. They found…

Ley, Ian; Haggard, Patrick; Yarrow, Kielan – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2009
Recent research that assessed spatial judgments about multisensory stimuli suggests that humans integrate multisensory inputs in a statistically optimal manner by weighting each input by its normalized reciprocal variance. Is integration similarly optimal when humans judge the temporal properties of bimodal stimuli? Twenty-four participants…

West, Greg L.; Anderson, Adam A. K.; Pratt, Jay – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2009
Previous studies that have found attentional capture effects for stimuli of motivational significance do not directly measure initial attentional deployment, leaving it unclear to what extent these items produce attentional capture. Visual prior entry, as measured by temporal order judgments (TOJs), rests on the premise that allocated attention…

Brockmole, James R.; Henderson, John M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2005
The authors examined the prioritization of abruptly appearing objects in real-world scenes by measuring the eyes' propensity to be directed to the new object. New objects were fixated more often than chance whether they appeared during fixations (transient onsets) or saccades (nontransient onsets). However, onsets that appeared during fixations…
