Object substitution masking is a term coined by Enns and Di Lollo (1997) to describe their finding that a briefly-presented visual shape can be erased from consciousness by the subsequent presentation of four small dots that surround the visual shape but do not touch it. This article will describe the conditions under which object substitution masking occurs and will give a theoretical interpretation of what this form of masking implies about how the human visual system processes spatial and temporal information.
