Persistence of the upper visual field peri-saccadic orientation identification advantage even with full advance prior knowledge of target location. A, B, In both experiments, peri-saccadic upper visual field orientation identification performance was still better than for the lower visual field (red asterisks) even with valid prior knowledge of target location (Materials and Methods). All other conventions are similar to those in Figure 1.
