masking in memory

A new stimulus, immediately happening at same location as previous stimulus, causes immediate previous-stimulus forgetting {masking, memory}|. Brightness masking uses a higher-intensity second stimulus and affects retina. Pattern masking uses pattern, affects mental processing, and has no brightness effect. Masking does not necessarily replace the first image but only prevents consciousness [Keysers et al., 2001].
