The distractor cue was associated with faster RTs. A, Grand average RTs for combinations of cue (present/absent) and distractor (present/absent) conditions. B, Mean accuracy for combinations of cue and distractor conditions. C, Grand average RTs for cued (orange) and noncued (pink) distractor trials within overlapping 200 ms bins. All error bars indicate ±1 SEM. Bolded light orange lines (above the RT data) indicate the time points at which RTs significantly differed between cued and noncued trials without correcting for multiple comparisons, while bolded dark orange lines indicate the time points at which RTs significantly differed after correcting for multiple comparisons (p < 0.05). D, Examples of stimulus arrays with targets (green diamonds in this example) in close and far positions relative to the singleton distractor. Dashed white lines are included for illustration and were not visible to subjects. E, Grand average RTs for combinations of distractor condition (cued/noncued) and proximity to targets (close/far). F, Grand average RTs by proximity to cues on trials without distractors.
