Although many studies have demonstrated that crossmodal exogenous orienting can lead to a facilitation of reaction times, the issue of whether exogenous spatial orienting also affects the accuracy of perceptual judgments has proved to be much more controversial. Here, we examined whether or not exogenous spatial attentional orienting would affect sensitivity in a temporal discrimination task. Participants judged which of the two target letters, presented on either the same or opposite sides, had been presented first. A spatially non-predictive tone was presented 200 ms prior to the onset of the first visual stimulus. In two experiments, we observed improved performance (i.e., a decrease in the just noticeable difference) when the target letters were presented on opposite sides and the auditory cue was presented on the side of the first visual stimulus, even when central fixation was monitored ("Experiment 2"). A shift in the point of subjective simultaneity was also observed in both experiments, indicating 'prior entry' for cued as compared to uncued first target trials. No such JND or PSS effects were observed when the auditory tone was presented after the second visual stimulus ("Experiment 3"), thus confirming the attentional nature of the effects observed. These findings clearly show that the crossmodal exogenous orienting of spatial attention can affect the accuracy of temporal judgments.
