Previous studies yielded evidence that the precision, with which stimuli are localized in the visual periphery, is improved under conditions of focused attention. The present study examined whether focused attention is able to correct a mislocalization recently observed with successively presented stimuli: when observers are asked to localize the peripheral position of a briefly presented target with respect to...
When observers were asked to localize the peripheral position of a briefly presented target with respect to a previously presented comparison stimulus, they tended to judge the target as being more towards the fovea than the comparison stimulus. Three experiments revealed that the mislocalization only emerged when the comparison stimulus and the target were presented successively. Varying the temporal interval ...
