| Research Abstract |
We found that temporal uncertainty bias over various stimulus-onset-asynchronies occurs in a within-block design. We then demonstrated the effect of temporal uncertainty bias on measurements in attentional blink, priming effect, and negative priming effect experiments conducted with within-block designs, and suggested the necessity of eliminating the bias. We also explored appropriate experimental designs free from temporal uncertainty bias for experiments which require response to the first stimuli, and for those which do not require such response. We then conducted experiments of attentional blink, priming effect, and negative priming effect with the appropriate designs, measured accurate response times, reevaluated their theories, and gave some theoretical suggestions.
