'$[Name]' Procedure.

$[ProcedureName=nAFC] { $[AFCType=Spatial] { The procedure was a spatial $[AFCn]-AFC task: the subject had to indicate the position of the target stimulus based on the stimulus $[NameLevel]. The $[AFCn] stimuli were displayed according to a $[AFCSpatialConf] configuration with an eccentricity of $[AFCEccentricity] deg. } $[AFCType=Temporal] { The procedure was a temporal $[AFCn]-IFC task: the subject had to indicate which temporal interval contains the target stimulus based on the stimulus $[NameLevel]. } $[PedestalValue<>0] { The stimulus $[NameLevel] level was superimposed on a pedestal of $[PedestalValue] $[RTdelayRange<>0]{±$[RTdelayRange] according to a $[PedestalType] distribution}. } } $[ProcedureName=Yes/No] { Missing Description for $[ProcedureName] procedure.

} $[ProcedureName=Disc] { The subjects' task was to discriminate between $[DiscN] conditions of the stimulus $[STIMULUSPARAMETERS]. } $[ProcedureName=Adjust] { The subjects' task was to adjust the stimulus $[NameLevel] level. The procedure started with a $[NameLevel] level randomly selected in the range $[AdjustMeanInit]±$[AdjustRangeInit]. The step size was $[AdjustStepSize] in $[AdjustStepSizeType] terms. $[AdjustAdaptive=Yes] { This adjustment procedure automatically terminated after $[AdjustNbReversals] reversals $[AdjustMaxTrials<>0]{or after $[AdjustMaxTrials] trials} and reported the $[NameLevel] level averaged across the last $[AdjustAnalyzedReversals] reversals. } $[AdjustAdaptive=No] { This adjustment procedure stopped when the subject decided to $[AdjustMaxTrials<>0]{or after $[AdjustMaxTrials] trials} and reported the last value of the $[NameLevel] level. } } Subjects provided their responses using a $[ResponseDevice] device ($[DECISION]). $[ResponseEndStimulus=Yes]{Their responses ended the $[ResponsePostStimulus=Yes]{trial}$[ResponsePostStimulus=No]{stimulus interval}$[ResponsePostStimulus?0]{trial}.} $[ResponsePostStimulus=Yes]{They were allowed to respond only during the post-stimulus interval.} $[ResponseTimeLimited=Yes]{Their response in the post-stimulus interval was limited to $[ResponseTime] s.} $[AuditoryInd=Yes]{An auditory indicator was emitted at the beginning of each stimulus interval.} $[TempMod<>None] { The duration of each stimulus interval was $[DURATION] seconds, and the overall contrast of each stimulus interval was $[TempMod] enveloped with a sigma of $[TempSigma] seconds centered on the temporal window. } $[TempMod=None]{The stimuli were presented abruptly.} $[FixationMark=Yes]{A fixation mark was present during the stimulus interval [in the center of the display] and subjects were asked to maintain their fixation during the whole presentation.} $[Feedback=Yes]{Auditory feedback was given after each trial.} The duration of the inter-stimulus and inter-trial intervals was $[ISI] seconds.
$[CollectRT=Yes] {
Reaction times were collected, and a random delay ($[RTdelayMean]±$[RTdelayRange] seconds with a $[RTdelayType] distribution) was introduced before each stimulus interval, from which one can estimate the tendency for a subject to make an anticipation error. Subjects were asked to respond as fast and reliably as possible.
} $[MultipleResponseCollection=Yes] {
Multiple responses were collected in the same trial. $[PressReleaseDetection=Yes]{Input releases were also recorded.} $[ReportSelectionNumber=Yes]{The number of responses for each input was recorded.} $[ReportTotalDuration=Yes]{The total duration for each input was measured.} $[ReportSwappingStatistics=Yes]{The swap statistics was reported for each trial.} }

Observers.

The observers were the authors (authors initials) and number additional subjects (their initials). All have normal or corrected-to-normal vision, and all have normal color vision according to the Farnsworth–Munsell 100 Hue Test. Practice trials were run before the experiments commenced. All experiments were done under binocular conditions.
