Vision Res 47:2685-99. 2007..Based on the present data, we further propose that Díaz-Caneja stimuli induce 'meta-rivalry' whereby the discrete high- and low-level competitive processes themselves rival for visual consciousness... - Plaid motion rivalry: correlates with binocular rivalry and positive mood stateBonita M Sheppard

Perception 32:295-305. 2003..We conclude that (i) MIB is a form of perceptual rivalry, and (ii) there may be a common oscillator responsible for timing aspects of all forms of perceptual rivalry... - Using psilocybin to investigate the relationship between attention, working memory, and the serotonin 1A and 2A receptorsOlivia L Carter
