The present study examined how the size of attended area affects the repulsion of perceived object location from the focus of attention reported previously (attentional repulsion effect). We induced sustained changes in the size of attentional focus and tested the impact of this experimental variation on the perception of object location. The results of three experiments revealed reliable repulsion effects for each size of attentional focus. However, the magnitude of the effect decreased substantially with an increase in focus size. This outcome extends the knowledge about how spatial attention affects visual perception.
本研究考察了被注意区域的大小如何影响先前报告的感知物体位置从注意焦点的排斥(注意排斥效应)。我们诱导注意焦点大小的持续变化,并测试这种实验变化对物体位置感知的影响。三个实验的结果都显示出了对每个注意焦点大小的可靠排斥效应。然而,随着焦点大小的增加,效应的幅度显著减小。这一结果扩展了关于空间注意如何影响视觉感知的知识。
