“…Crucially, the cueing of attention enhanced neural processing in the same ventral regions of the visual cortex, which, as the authors confirm, are responsive to physical differences in contrast. These results are consistent with the proposal that attention increases perceived contrast by boosting early sensory processing in visual cortex (9,(12)(13)(14), and they contradict the hypothesis that the effect of attention is due to a decisional bias (20).…”

“…However, the issue continues to be debated (19,20). Schneider (19) reported that peripheral cues increase perceived brightness only at levels near detection threshold, more so for white than black cues.…”

“…In two experiments, Schneider and Komlos (2008) replicated the findings in Carrasco et al (2004) with comparative contrast judgments, but when similarity judgments were used (with the same stimuli), the participants' responses did not show any sign of a cuing effect. The authors concluded that the effect of exogenous cues on forced choices about apparent contrast emerges at the decision stage and is not genuinely perceptual.…”

“…Finally, a nonperceptual account of the effect of spatial cuing on judgments of contrast intensity was recently introduced by Schneider and Komlos (2008). In particular, the authors suggested that the effect of spatial attention on judgments of contrast intensity is the consequence of the prioritization of the cued information, which biases the decision process.…”
