Global and local priming in a multi-modal context.

ABSTRACT: Perceptual information can be processed at many different scales, from featural details to entire scenes. Attentional selection of different scales has been studied using hierarchical stimuli, with research elucidating a variety of biases in local and global attentional selection (due to, e.g., stimulus properties, brain injury, and experience). In this study, the emphasis is on biases produced through recent experience, or level-specific priming effects, which have been demonstrated within both the visual and auditory modalities. Namely, when individuals attend to local information, they are subsequently biased to attend locally (and similarly so with global attention). Here, these level-specific priming effects are investigated in a multi-modal context to determine whether cross-modal in
