Haptic Search

Under incidental learning conditions, spatial layouts can be acquired implicitly and facilitate visual search (contextual-cueing effect). We examined whether the contextual-cueing effect is specific to the visual modality or transfers to the haptic modality. The participants performed 320 (experiment 1) or 192 (experiment 2) visual search trials based on a typical contextual-cueing paradigm, followed by haptic search trials in which half of the trials had layouts used in the previous visual search trials. The visual contextual-cueing effect was obtained in the learning phase. More importantly, the effect was transferred from visual to haptic searches; there was greater facilitation of haptic search trials when the spatial layout was the same as in the previous visual search trials, compared with trials in which the spatial layout differed from those in the visual search. This suggests the commonality of spatial memory to allocate focused attention in both visual and haptic modalities.

Rapid Presentation

In contextual cueing, previously encountered context tends to facilitate the detection of the target embedded in it than when the target appears in a novel context. In this study, we investigated whether the contextual cueing could develop at early time when the search display was presented briefly. In four experiments, participants searched for a target T in an array of distractor Ls. The results showed that with a rather short presentation time of the search display, participants were able to learn the spatial context and speeded up their response time overall, with the learning effect lasting for a long period. Specifically, the contextual cueing effect was observed either with or without a mask after a duration of 300-ms presentation of the search display. Such a context learning under rapid presentation could not operate only with the local context information repeated, thus suggesting that a global context was required to guide spatial attention when the viewing time of the search display was limited. Overall, these findings indicate that contextual cueing might arise at an “early,” target selection stage and that the global context is necessary for the context learning under rapid presentation to function.

Unpaired Region

Binocular displacement of binocularly unpaired parts of the stimulus was examined by means of the Poggendorff figure. The Poggendorff figure can be used to investigate displacement since lateral displacement of the transversal may cause bias in judgments of its collinearity. In experiment 1, the transversal had a disparity, and thus binocularly unpaired parts, relative to the rectangle. The magnitude of the Poggendorff illusion should not have changed by addition of binocular disparity if displacement occurred. There was no or slight change when the transversal was seen behind the rectangle, but there was significant decrease when the transversal was seen in front of the rectangle, suggesting absence of displacement in this case. There were two possible explanations. One was that displacement depended on the positional relation between the unpaired stimuli and the binocularly presented rectangle, ie the occlusion constraint, which the case with the transversal in front did not satisfy. The alternative was that the decrease was due to the perceived front depth of the transversal, and not related to binocular displacement at all. In order to discriminate between these two possibilities, the transversal was reduced to only the unpaired parts, resulting in dichoptic stimulation in experiment 2. In this stimulus, the positional relation between the unpaired and the paired stimuli was the same as in the previous experiment, yet no front depth could be perceived. The results showed similar asymmetry as in experiment 1. Thus we conclude that binocular displacement depends on the positional relation between the unpaired and the paired stimuli, regardless of their perceived depth. This may imply that binocular displacement is not symmetric about the sign of disparity, hence that it is not just averaging but is a reconstruction of the spatial layout of objects in the outside world to keep the visual direction of the unsuppressed unpaired region veridical by using explicit cues to depth discontinuity.

And Task

In the contextual cueing task, visual search is faster for targets embedded in invariant displays compared to targets found in variant displays. However, it has been repeatedly shown that participants do not learn repeated contexts when these are irrelevant to the task. One potential explanation lays in the idea of associative blocking, where salient cues (task-relevant old items) block the learning of invariant associations in the task-irrelevant subset of items. An alternative explanation is that the associative blocking rather hinders the allocation of attention to task-irrelevant subsets, but not the learning per se. The current work examined these two explanations. In two experiments, participants performed a visual search task under a rapid presentation condition (300 ms) in Experiment 1, or under a longer presentation condition (2,500 ms) in Experiment 2. In both experiments, the search items within both old and new displays were presented in two colors which defined the irrelevant and task-relevant items within each display. The participants were asked to search for the target in the relevant subset in the learning phase. In the transfer phase, the instructions were reversed and task-irrelevant items became task-relevant (and vice versa). In line with previous studies, the search of task-irrelevant subsets resulted in no cueing effect post-transfer in the longer presentation condition; however, a reliable cueing effect was generated by task-irrelevant subsets learned under the rapid presentation. These results demonstrate that under rapid display presentation, global attentional selection leads to global context learning. However, under a longer display presentation, global attention is blocked, leading to the exclusive learning of invariant relevant items in the learning session.
