Effects of lateral masking and spatial precueing on gap-resolution in central and peripheral vision.

abstract：:We have measured orientation discrimination in the presence of a variable number of neutral distracters for two distinct tasks: identification of the orientation of a tilted target and location of its position. Both tasks were performed in the presence of visual noise of variable contrasts. Under a range of conditions...
