Illusory line motion (ILM) refers to the perception of motion in a line that is, in fact, presented in full at one time. One form of this illusion (ILM) occurs when the line is presented between two objects following a brief luminance change in one of them and ILM is thought to result from exogenous attention being captured by the flash. Exogenous attention fades with increasing delays, which predicts that ILM should show a similar temporal pattern. Exogenous attention appears to follow ILM to become more or less equally distributed along the line.The current study examines ILM in order to test these predictions derived from the attentional explanation for ILM and the results were consistent with them. The discussion then concludes with an exploratory analysis approach concerning states of consciousness and decision making and suggests a possible role for attention.
虚幻线条运动（ILM）指的是对一条实际上一次性完整呈现的线条产生运动的感知。当这条线在两个物体之间呈现，且其中一个物体有短暂的亮度变化时，就会出现这种错觉（ILM）的一种形式，并且ILM被认为是由闪光捕获外源性注意所导致的。外源性注意会随着延迟增加而消退，这预示着ILM应该呈现出类似的时间模式。外源性注意似乎跟随ILM，从而沿着线条或多或少均匀分布。当前的研究考察了ILM，以检验这些从对ILM的注意解释中得出的预测，结果与这些预测一致。讨论最后采用了一种关于意识状态和决策的探索性分析方法，并提出了注意可能发挥的作用。
