Incorrect: SOA n+1 = SOAn + 10msec Correct: SOA n+1 = SOAn – 30msec Compare psychophysic al thresholds for a variety of tasks

Varying image duration

80 msec mask duration

Temporal image understanding: Measuring perceptual thresholds of various tasks Temporal image understanding: Measuring perceptual thresholds of various tasks

Where will the eye be drawn?

Distractor INSIDE Context region Distractor OUTSIDE Context region % trials on which eyes drawn to the distractor chance

Saliency * Context

First fixation drawn to the Salient object WITHIN the Contextual region
