In this experiment, you will view a series of images using your mouse cursor as a "spotlight" of attention. Only the area around your cursor will be visible clearly, while other areas will be blurred.
You will complete 3 rounds of experiments with 20 trials each. Move your mouse to look at the images - it acts as your "spotlight" of attention.
Each trial begins when you click the "Start" or "Next" button. Four images will then appear in the four quadrants of the screen.
Important: Move your mouse cursor naturally to explore the images.
When you are ready, press SPACEBAR to begin.
