Abstract

Recent theories of attention have emphasized the role of object-based representations in visual selection. One defining property of any object is spatiotemporal continuity. The present experiments show that the continuity property may underlie two seemingly unrelated perceptual phenomena: attentional capture by abrupt visual onset and the appearance of bistable apparent motion displays.
