AUTHOR=Hommel Bernhard , Keizer Andre TITLE=Binding Success and Failure: Evidence for the Spontaneous Integration of Perceptual Features and Object Evaluations JOURNAL=Frontiers in Psychology VOLUME=3 YEAR=2012 URL=https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/psychology/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2012.00581 DOI=10.3389/fpsyg.2012.00581 ISSN=1664-1078 ABSTRACT=

Humans represent perceptual events in a distributed, feature-specific fashion, which calls for some sort of feature integration. It has been suggested that processing an event leads to the creation of a temporary binding of the corresponding feature codes – an object file. Here we show that object files do not only comprise of perceptual feature codes but also include codes that reflect evaluations of the perceptual event.
