Abstract
The role of low-spatial-frequency information in the processing of global stimuli made up of local elements was examined. After selective removal of low spatial frequencies two major changes occurred in the pattern of results. First, response times to global stimuli were significantly slower and the usual speed advantage of global over local processing was lost. Second, when processing local features the usual decrease in response speed when the local and global letters are not the same (consistency effect) was not obtained. These effects could not be explained by changes in error rate, by contrast variation resulting from the process of filtering, or by loss of visual sensitivity due to greater eccentricity of global images.
