PNAS nexus has published this paper by Baptiste Caziot, Martin, and Benjamin Backus, where we mapped the 3D shape of attentional focus on stimuli that were individually offset in both eyes to study binocular disparity.Caziot, B., Rolfs, M., & Backus, B. (2023). Orienting attention across binocular disparity. PNAS nexus, 2(10), pgad314. [link] [pdf] Abstract:The spatial … Continue reading New publication: Attention can be oriented across binocular disparities

New preprint on active foveal processing
In a new article that we just pushed out as a preprint to bioRxiv, Lisa and Martin show that the conspicuity of the saccade target (i.e., its contrast / signal-to-noise ratio) influences the magnitude & time course of pre-saccadic foveal prediction. This is a follow-up to our recent paper on foveal prediction.Kroell, L. M. & … Continue reading New preprint on active foveal processing
