Binocular rivalry disrupts visual priming
Article Abstract:
Priming mechanisms during perceptual processing in repetition priming were investigated using a picture-naming paradigm under binocular rivalry. Presentation of the priming images were done under either dominance or suppression during binocular rivalry. If the image is presented during dominance, it is seen but it is not recognized during suppression. Results indicate that repetition priming takes place in an intermediate stage between suppression and dominance.

Neural adaptation of imaginary visual motion
Article Abstract:
Analysis of experiments conducted on eight undergraduates from Vanderbilt University revealed that the direction of imaginary visual movements is relative to the direction of adapting motion. Imagined speed decreased when imagined motion was in the same direction of adapting motion, and increased when imagined motion was in the opposite direction. Imagined speed remained unchanged when adaption and imagined motion were orthogonal.

On the nature of streaks in signal detection
Article Abstract:
Analysis of human ability in the realm of signal detection reveals that streaky acts are a remnant of wave-like variations in perceptual and attentional data. Auditory and visual discrimination have streakiness, as accurate and false responses have a positive sequential dependency.
