Perceptions of synchrony: different strokes for different folks?

abstract：:Sex differences were investigated in two experiments on visual persistence: the Ganzfeld and the afterimage. Males were found to hold visual sensation longer than females, particularly in the Ganzfeld where there was little overlap of scores. Variability of experience in the Ganzfeld was also greater for males and the...

Temporal competition between odorants in a binary mixture was tested by artificially creating a delay between one odour (the target) and a second, stronger, odour (the mask) during a single natural sniff.
