Neural dynamics of the attentional blink revealed by encoding orientation selectivity during rapid visual presentation

Abstract: The human brain is inherently limited in the information it can make consciously accessible. When people monitor a rapid stream of visual items for two targets, they typically fail to see the second target if it occurs within 200-500 ms of the first, a phenomenon called the attentional blink (AB). The neural basis for the AB is poorly understood, partly because conventional neuroimaging techniques cannot resolve visual events displayed close together in time. Here we introduce an approach that characterises th… Show more

“…Hommel & Akyürek, 2005). This finding stands in contrast to previous findings by Asplund et al (2014) and Tang et al (2020), who obtained only all-or-none patterns in their continuous report RSVP tasks. The current outcome thus suggests that there might be something fundamentally different in the nature of perceptual awareness during the AB as observed in DT and RSVP tasks.…”

“…Constant σ across SOA was the best model for the effect of SOA on T2|T1 (Table 6). This finding showed evidence in favor of discrete awareness (Figure 7c, d), which is in line with existing accounts of the AB (Asplund et al, 2014; Tang et al, 2020; Dehaene et al, 2003; Sergent et al, 2005).…”

“…Such models have been applied to fMRI data to assess encoding of features such as colour (Brouwer and Heeger, 2009), orientation (Scolari et al, 2012) and position (Sprague and Serences, 2013). These methods have also been adapted for use with EEG using neural responses in the frequency (Foster et al, 2016;Garcia et al, 2013) and temporal domains (Smout et al, 2019;Tang et al, 2020Tang et al, , 2018. Here, we used data from the pattern estimator task and multivariate linear regression to model the EEG responses per time point as a weighted sum of six position "channels", each tuned to the experimental positions of 60°, 120°, 180°, 240°, 300°, 360°.…”

“…Using a Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP) task, wherein a stream of stimuli including two targets and various distractors are rapidly displayed, Raymond et al (1992) were the first to find that individuals often fail to report a second target (T2) that is presented shortly after a first target (T1) that has been immediately and correctly identified, especially when the temporal delay between the two targets is within 200-500 ms (see also Kan et al, 2019). Although many recent studies have examined the cognitive mechanisms underpinning the attentional blink (e.g., Kan et al, 2019;Tang et al, 2020;Trutti et al, 2019), no research appears to have examined this effect in the fields of advertising or environmental psychology.…”
