![]() ![]() Strong mislocalization effects are seen when the visual objects are shown on top of a moving stimulus (Tse, Whitney, Anstis, & Cavanagh, 2011). Visual objects presented close to a moving pattern are mislocalized towards the direction of motion (Whitney, Westwood, & Goodale, 2003 Whitney & Cavanagh, 2000). A number of studies report shifts of the perceived location of a target away from the location that corresponds to its retinal position and these results challenge the “labeled line” theories for coding of spatial position (Fischer, Spotswood, & Whitney, 2011): First, the perceived position of briefly presented objects is modulated by motion (Whitney, 2002). How the visual system retrieves the position of objects in space is a matter of ongoing research. We hypothesize that the attraction might be explained by the summation of the neural activity distributions of probe and anchor. When the probe dot and anchor were presented with similar brief duration, the more peripheral stimulus always shifted toward the more foveal stimulus independently of their temporal order. No compression occurred when the anchor was presented long before or after the mask. The anchor had to appear briefly before mask onset to attract the probe dot. However, when the probe dot was presented simultaneously with the mask it appeared shifted toward the anchor by as much as 50% of their separation. The probe dot location was perceived nearly veridically when presented long before or after mask onset. Subjects estimated the position of the probe dot in relation to a subsequently presented comparison bar. At various times around mask onset a probe dot was flashed. While subjects kept fixation, a salient visual stimulus (from now on referred to as “anchor”) was presented, followed by a brief whole-field mask. ![]() In his grand summation of structuration theory, The Costitution of Society, Anthony Giddens defines time-space distanciation as “(t)he stretching of social systems across time-space, on the basis of mechanisms of social and system integration” (1984: 377).Abstract We report a strong compression of space around a visual anchor presented in the near visual periphery (<5°).

System integration here can be seen as the ways in which the various “parts” of the social system are combined and coordinated. In his grand summation of structuration theory, The Costitution of Society, Anthony Giddens defines time-space distanciation as “(t)he stretching of social systems across time-space, on the basis of mechanisms of social and system integration” (1984: 377). This article advances the concept of “time–space intensification” as an alternative to existing notions of time–space distanciation, compression and embedding that attempt to capture the restructuring of time and space in contemporary advanced capitalism. What is Time–space intensification: Karl Polanyi, the double Modern analysts also conceive of globalization as a long-term process of deterritorialization-that is, of social activities (economic, political, and. Social scientists have identified the central aspects of globalization as interconnection, intensification, time-space distanciation (conditions that allow time and space to be organized in a manner that connects presence and absence), supraterritoriality, time-space compression, action at a distance, and accelerating interdependence. ![]() People Also Read: What Are The Political Impacts Of Globalization?
