A model of the formation of illusory conjunctions in the time domain. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 27(6), 1452-1467. DOI: 10.1037//0096-1523.27.6.1452.00961523http://hdl.handle.net/11268/5789The authors present a model to account for the miscombination of features when stimuli are presented using the rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) technique (illusory conjunctions in the time domain). It explains the distributions of responses through a mixture of trial outcomes. In some trials, attention is successfully focused on the target, whereas in others, the responses are based on partial information. Two experiments are presented that manipulated the mean processing time of the target-defining dimension and of the to-be-reported dimension, respectively. As predicted, the average origin of the responses is delayed when lengthening the target-defining dimension, whereas it is earlier when lengthening the to-be-reported dimension; in the first case the number of correct responses is dramatically reduced, whereas in the second it does not change. The results, a review of other research, and simulations carried out with a formal version of the model are all in close accordance with the predictions.engjournal article10.1037//0096-1523.27.6.1452restricted accessPsicologíaIlusiones ópticasPsicologíaÓptica
