Visual priming of two-step motion sequences.

ABSTRACT: Perception of an ambiguous apparent motion is influenced by the immediately preceding motion. In positive priming, when an observer is primed with a slow-pace (1-3 Hz) sequence of motion frames depicting unidirectional drift (e.g., Right-Right-Right-Right), subsequent sequences of ambiguous frames are often perceived to continue moving in the primed direction (illusory Right-Right …). Furthermore, priming an observer with a slow-pace sequence of rebounding apparent motion frames that alternate between opponently coded motion directions (e.g., Right-Left-Right-Left) leads to an illusory continuation of the two-step rebounding sequence in subsequent random frames. Here, we show that even more arbitrary two-step motion sequences can be primed; in particular, two-step motion sequences that alt
