Population-tuning curves for the V4 neurons that were not well fit by a Gaussian tuning curve in one or both task modes. Same format as in Figure 4. Both the attended (black) and unattended (gray) population-tuning curves reach our criterion for orientation tuning. Although there is a large difference in amplitude, there is little difference in the width of the curves.
