The effect of change in spatial frequency on the alternation rate of two crossed gratings was measured. The rate was found to decrease with increase in spatial frequency, but to change only little with contrast. Low alternation rate was observed for crossed square-wave gratings compared to crossed sine-wave gratings; here the rate of rivalry is largely dependent upon the presence or absence of the first three harmonic components rather than the higher harmonics which contribute to the sharp edges of the square wave. The results are compared with those for some ambiguous figures.

Late Selection

Four studies are reported that demonstrate effects of attention on early perceptual processes. These studies show that directing attention to stimulus location influences perceived brightness, perceived length, and the overall organisation of the Müller-Lyer figure and ambiguous figures. Since in all four studies the dependent measure was dissociated from the attentional instructions, the results are not open to traditional criticism of late-selection advocates, and therefore provide strong support for early-selection views of attention.
