Figure 4.

(A), (B) Schematic diagrams of trials where monkeys foveated the search target with the third saccade. Format as in Figure 2A, B. (C) An extrafoveal preview benefit similar to that in Figure 2C is also seen when monkeys foveated the search target with the third saccade. Abscissa: Distance of second saccade endpoint from search target. Format otherwise identical to Figure 2C. (D) Extrafoveal preview benefit can carry over more than one saccade: Monkeys take less time to release the bar after foveating the target with the third saccade if their eyes were closer to the target after the first saccade. Ordinate: Verification time (ms) for targets foveated by third saccades. Abscissa: distance of first saccade endpoint from target (degrees). Blue and red curves indicate mean and 95% simultaneous confidence bands for trials where the second saccade ends within 10° of the target and trials where the second saccade ends more than 10° away from the target. Data from Monkey Z in the left column and data from Monkey R in the right column. Data from upright-T trials only for Monkey Z and pooled from upright-T and inverted-T trials for Monkey R (see Methods); trials with second saccades starting from or ending at the popout distractor omitted for both monkeys.
