The ability to detect a target word depends on the target position (T1 and T2) and the time separating the onset of the two targets (SOA).

<p>Paired <i>t</i>-tests comparisons showed that when the stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) is short (53 ms) T2 is better reported than T1 (<i>t</i>₁₇<i> = </i>12.56, <i>P</i><.001). On the reverse, when the SOA is longer (213 ms, 3 distractors between T1 and T2), T1 is better reported than T2 (<i>t</i>₁₇<i> = </i>7.47, <i>P</i><.001). Error bars indicate s.e.m.
