Unconscious Endogenous Attention

Abstract
The current study investigated whether the predictability of the central cue would influence endogenous attention without being perceived and aware of. We used Posner’s cueing paradigm (1980) with central cues, which were subliminally presented through CFS(Continuous Flash Suppression, Tsuchiya & Koch, 2005). In Experiment 1, subliminal predictive central cue was presented and participants were not told about the existence of the central cue. Results showed that the target presented on the cued location was detected more quickly with compared to the target presented on the un-cued location, even thought they were not awared of the central cues. In Experiment 2, non-predictive cue was presented subliminally or supraliminally depending on the group condition. A random half of the participants were in the subliminal cue group, or consciously not perceived the cue. The remainder was assigned to supraliminal cue group, and they could consciously perceived the cue. Results showed that the cueing effect of the non-predictive cue was not observed in the subliminal cue group, whereas it was only reported in the supraliminal cue group. It could be inferred from these results that endogenous attention could work without conscious awareness, and it could be determined by the predictability of the subliminal cue.
