More recently, we have demonstrated that brief probes are attracted towards a visual reference when followed by a mask, even in the absence of saccades (Zimmermann et al., 2014a). Here, we ask whether spatial compression depends on the transient disruptions of the visual input stream caused by either a mask or a saccade. Both of these degrade the probe visibility but we show that low probe visibility alone causes compression in the absence of any disruption. In a first experiment, we varied the regions of the screen covered by a transient mask, including areas where no stimulus was presented and a condition without masking. In all conditions, we adjusted probe contrast to make the probe equally hard to detect. Compression effects were found in all conditions. To obtain compression without a mask, the probe had to be presented at much lower contrasts than with masking. Comparing mislocalizations at different probe detection rates across masking, saccades and low contrast conditions without mask or saccade, Experiment 2 confirmed this observation and showed a strong influence of probe contrast on compression. Finally, in Experiment 3, we found that compression decreased as probe duration increased both for masks and saccades although here we did find some evidence that factors other than simply visibility as we measured it contribute to compression. Our experiments suggest that compression reflects how the visual system localizes weak targets in the context of highly visible stimuli. 000828064 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-572$$a572 - (Dys-)function and Plasticity (POF3-572)$$cPOF3-572$$fPOF III$$x0 000828064 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef 000828064 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aKrüger, Hannah M.$$b1 000828064 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)145708$$aZimmermann, Eckart$$b2 000828064 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aCavanagh, Patrick$$b3 000828064 773__ $$0PERI:(DE-600)2453005-0$$a10.3389/fnsys.2016.00021$$gVol. 10$$pArticle 21$$tFrontiers in systems neuroscience$$v10$$x1662-5137$$y2016 000828064 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/828064/files/fnsys-10-00021.pdf$$yOpenAccess 000828064 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/828064/files/fnsys-10-00021.gif?subformat=icon$$xicon$$yOpenAccess 000828064 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/828064/files/fnsys-10-00021.jpg?subformat=icon-1440$$xicon-1440$$yOpenAccess 000828064 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/828064/files/fnsys-10-00021.jpg?subformat=icon-180$$xicon-180$$yOpenAccess 000828064 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/828064/files/fnsys-10-00021.jpg?subformat=icon-640$$xicon-640$$yOpenAccess 000828064 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/828064/files/fnsys-10-00021.pdf?subformat=pdfa$$xpdfa$$yOpenAccess 000828064 909CO $$ooai:juser.fz-juelich.de:828064$$pdnbdelivery$$pVDB$$pdriver$$popen_access$$popenaire 000828064 9101_ $$0I:(DE-HGF)0$$6P:(DE-Juel1)145708$$a INM-3$$b2 000828064 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)145708$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b2$$kFZJ 000828064 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-572$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF3-570$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF3-500$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF3$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bKey Technologies$$lDecoding the Human Brain$$v(Dys-)function and Plasticity$$x0 000828064 9141_ $$y2017 000828064 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0200$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bSCOPUS 000828064 915__ $$0LIC:(DE-HGF)CCBY4$$2HGFVOC$$aCreative Commons Attribution CC BY 4.0 000828064 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0112$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bEmerging Sources Citation Index 000828064 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0501$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bDOAJ Seal 000828064 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0500$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bDOAJ 000828064 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0150$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bWeb of Science Core Collection 000828064 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0510$$2StatID$$aOpenAccess 000828064 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0310$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bNCBI Molecular Biology Database 000828064 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0300$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bMedline 000828064 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0199$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bThomson Reuters Master Journal List 000828064 920__ $$lyes 000828064 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)INM-3-20090406$$kINM-3$$lKognitive Neurowissenschaften$$x0 000828064 980__ $$ajournal 000828064 980__ $$aVDB 000828064 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED 000828064 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)INM-3-20090406 000828064 9801_ $$aFullTexts
