Attentional facilitation: task-relevant retinotopic location, experiment 3. Attentional facilitation is plotted as the difference in RT for probes appearing in the spatiotopic and retinotopic locations compared with the control location baseline (zero). Data are plotted as a function of probe delay. The right panel illustrates probe locations for a sample configuration, colored according to the plot legend, with white indicating the control location. Gray dot indicates initial fixation locations, white dot is current fixation, and arrow indicates saccade pattern. The solid gray square represents the initial cued location; the dashed gray square represents the task-relevant retinotopic location to be held in memory. Error bars indicate SEM after normalization to remove between-subject variability (Loftus and Masson, 1994); n = 12.
