    A frame at a different depth than a photograph enhances the apparent depth in the photograph

    Two experiments showed that a photo frame placed at a distance from the photo itself enhances the apparent depth of contents within the photo. In Experiment 1, 32 observers rated the apparent depth of 60 succe...

    The Relationship Between Drowsiness Level and Takeover Performance in Automated Driving

    Although automated driving systems can perform dynamic driving tasks, at its lower levels, human drivers must still take over control of the vehicle whenever a Take Over Request (TOR) is issued. Human factors ...

    Voluntary triggering of the first target attenuates the attentional blink

    The term attentional blink (AB) refers to a failure in identifying the second of two targets, separated by less than 500 ms, embedded in a rapid succession of nontargets. To examine whether the expectation of the...

    Usability of liquid crystal displays for research in the temporal characteristics of perception and attention

    Recently, the use of liquid crystal displays (LCDs) in computer monitors has increased in popularity. Can LCDs produce results similar to those obtained in cathode-ray tube (CRT) displays in studies of tempora...

    The role of left and right intraparietal sulcus in the attentional blink: a transcranial magnetic stimulation study

    Processing of one visual target (T1) makes it difficult to become aware of a second target (T2), when two targets, embedded in a stream of distractor stimuli, occur within about 500 ms. This phenomenon is know...
