One part of a form can be described locally(itself as a whole)and globally(as a part of the whole). How each of the two (double)descriptions is processed and what relationships the one has with the other are among important questions of perception.Previous studies had been on whether global processing progresses faster or slower than local processing.This study,however,focused on charateristics of the two processings.The task was that subjects identify global or local name of a compound stimulus briefly exposured.Repetition effects were meansured under three displaying conditions with two types of stimulus set.The result pattern shows that global/local processing is a dynamic phenomenon with its own properties and variability on conditions as well.
