Processing visual information in an unattended location

what is the nature of processing of information from one visual location when attention is directed to some other visual location / flanker studies (and related studies in which the target is in a cued position in a circle of letters, flanked by letters varying in comparability . . . ) provide perhaps the major line of evidence for mandatory, automatic processing of information from locations other than those to which attention is directed
used a paradigm in which a discrimination of X from O was required (with distractors, E, F, and H) / the simplicity of the required X–O discrimination prevents the drawing of conclusions about the depth of any processing that is found / carried out a number of variants of [this] paradigm in which the 1st cue occurred 185 ms in advance of the prime display, the prime display was presented for 150 ms, and the 2nd cue occurred immediately thereafter, with the onset of the target display / report results from related studies, with the same stimuli and timing, but using only one cue
