Color diversity judgments in peripheral vision: evidence against “cost-free” representations

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    In a series of experiments, participants viewed a briefly-presented 4x6 rectangular grid of colored letters and were asked to recall a specific letter from a "pre-cued" row and rate the level of color diversity for different rows in the grid. Data showed that the task of reporting color diversity for "non-cued" rows did not impact people`s ability to accurately recall specific letters from cued rows, indicating color diversity may be processed "cost-free" (i.e., without a reduction in task performance) outside of attended areas in dual-task settings.
