Fig. 5: Results of experiment 3.

Increase in anti-vernier dominance across anti-vernier time/position, relative to the anti-vernier dominance obtained at the first measured time point/position, for the standard condition (blue line) and the short-ISI condition (red line), when plotted in a temporal coordinate system a or a positional coordinate system b. Error bars depict standard errors; circles depict individual participants’ data points. The two curves depicted in temporal coordinates are significantly more aligned than those depicted in positional coordinates (t(14) = 2.98, p = .010, Cohen’s d = 1.07, 95% CI = [4.233, 26.098], in a two-tailed paired-sample t-test; n = 15 independent participants).
