The effects of information sequencing and variations in interstimulus interval were investigated in a metered-memory-search paradigm where S responded with a rule-defined letter belonging to a memory set. If information concerning the starting point of the search was presented before the defining rule, the over-all latency was shorter than if the reverse was the case, supporting the notion that isolation of the starting position is an integral component of the metered-memory-search task. Increasing the interstimulus interval between information about the starting position and rule-defining transformation resulted over-all in a longer latency but had no effect on rate of search.

An experiment was designed to investigate the possibility of interactions between luminance contrast factors and temporal factors in determining the magnitude of the concentric-circles aftereffect. 24 combinations of inducing figure exposure time, condition of test figure presentation (determined by test figure exposure time and interstimulus interval), inducing figure luminance contrast and test-figure luminance contrast, were used. No interactions were found.

When looking around at the world, we can only attend to a limited number of locations. The lateral intraparietal area (LIP) is thought to play a role in guiding both covert attention and eye movements. In this study, we tested the involvement of LIP in both mechanisms with a change detection task. In the task, animals had to indicate whether an element changed during a blank in the trial by making a saccade to it. If no element changed, they had to maintain fixation. We examine how the animal's behavior is biased based on LIP activity prior to the presentation of the stimulus the animal must respond to. When the activity was high, the animal was more likely to make an eye movement toward the stimulus, even if there was no change; when the activity was low, the animal either had a slower reaction time or maintained fixation, even if a change occurred. We conclude that LIP activity is involved in both covert and overt attention, but when decisions about eye movements are to be made, this role takes precedence over guiding covert attention.
