A square root law for adaptation to contrast?

abstract：:Three experiments examined the effects of using informative verbal and pictorial cues on participants' abilities to perform visual search. By providing participants with more time to encode the cues than had been used previously, all three experiments revealed long-lasting pictorially cued search advantages that stabi...
