Figure 1

(a) Visual stimuli used in Experiment 1 and 2. When viewed through red-green anaglyph glasses, the rose image was projected to the subjects' one eye whereas the marker image was projected to the other eye. Subjects indicated when their perception switched from seeing predominantly the rose /marker image to predominantly the marker /rose image by pressing one of two buttons. (b) Olfactory cues influenced visual processing. Compared with butanol, the dominance time of the rose image was longer and the dominance time of the marker image was shorter when the subjects smelled PEA, and vice versa. (c) Suggestion did not affect binocular rivalry. The dominance time of both the rose image and the marker image remained the same under the two conditions in which purified water was suggested as containing a rose or marker smell. Error bars represent standard errors of the mean, adjusted for individual differences.
