An electrophysiological study of the effects of orthographic neighborhood size on printed word perception.

abstract：:"Priming of pop-out" is a form of implicit memory that facilitates detection of a recently inspected search target. Repeated presentation of a target's features or its spatial position improves detection speed (feature/spatial priming). This study investigated a role for the human frontal eye fields (FEFs) in the prim...
