If attention were 'locked up' during an AB, capture should not occur. To test for capture, we varied the salience of the two targets (T1 and T2) or of a distractor. Salience was controlled by adjusting chromaticity at equiluminance to equate simple reaction times. Experiment 1 demonstrated that the extent of AB varied almost entirely with T2 salience, not with T1 salience. In Experiment 2, a salient distractor between T1 and T2 reduced the AB without affecting its temporal profile; a salient distractor after T2 had no effect on AB.
