Peer reviewedJohnston, William A.; Heinz, Steven F. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1979
The effect of the sensory discriminability of targets from nontargets on depth of nontarget processing was examined.

Depth of processing decreased as sensory discriminability increased, supporting multiple-loci…
