Three experiments further explored the Avant, Lyman, and Antes finding that, during prerecognition processing, differences in subjects' familiarity with letters, words, and nonwords generate differences in the apparent duration of tachistoscopic flashes. (Editor)

To investigate human visual identification of different-sized objects as identically shaped, matching reaction times were measured for pairs of simultaneously presented random figures. (Editor)

From experiments showing that subjects differentially attend to parts of the visual field, psychologists have inferred a limitation on human visual information processing capacity. The model presented describes an optimal way to allocate a limited quantity of "cognitive resources", "attention" or "mental effort". An experiment tests this model.…

Examines the hypothesis that the identification of a briefly presented visual target is impeded by a patterned mask that immediately precedes and/or follows it. (Author/RK)

Two experiments examined the effect of concurrently holding 0, 2, 4, or 6 nouns in memory on the recognition of visual stimuli briefly presented to the left or right visual fields. (Editor)

Reading reaction time (RT) to visual stimuli was shown to vary according to the nature of simultaneous auditory stimuli. A two-stage model was proposed to explain the results in which parallel processing of simultaneous input occurs prior to a decision-making stage. (Editor)
