The integration of spatially distinct elements into coherent objects is a fundamental process of vision. Yet notwithstanding an extensive literature on perceptual grouping, we still lack a clear understanding of the representational consequences of grouping disparate visual locations. We investigated this question in a feature comparison task; subjects identified matching features that belonged either to the same apparent object (within-object condition) or to different apparent objects (between-object condition). The stimulus was backward-masked at a variable SOA, to examine the consequences of changes in the perceptual organization of the segments over time. Critical to our aims, the two objects composing our stimulus were occluded to a variable extent, so that differences in within-object and between-object performance could be unequivocally related to the formation of objects. For certain stimulus arrangements, we found superior performance for within-object matches. The pattern of performance was, however, highly dependent on the stimulus orientation and was not related to the strength of the object percept. Using an oblique stimulus arrangement, we observed superior between-object comparisons that did vary with the object percept. We conclude that performance in our feature comparison task is strongly influenced by spatial relations between features that are independent of object properties. Indeed, this dominating effect may hide an underlying mechanism whereby formation of a visual object suppresses comparison of distinct features within the object.
