Binocular rivalry occurs when two eyes are presented with two conflicting stimuli. Although the physical stimulation stays the same, the conscious percept changes over time. This property makes it a unique paradigm in both vision science and consciousness research. Two key parameters, contrast and attention, were repeatedly shown to affect binocular rivalry dynamics in a similar manner. This...
Our subjective experience of the sensory information is rich and complex. Yet, typical cognitive and perception psychology paradigms reduce it to a few predefined discrete categories, like yes/no answers or the Likert scales. In the current study, we examined the complexity of subjective visual experience during binocular rivalry, a major experimental paradigm used to study conscious visual...
