Figure 2
Experiment 1. Salient portion-to-response correspondence effect (e.g., spout plus second object location-to-response position corresponding vs. non-corresponding pairings) in the task-relevant same and different category conditions (upper panel) and in task-irrelevant alignment and misalignment for action (lower panel); mean normalized reaction times (RTs) and error rates (ERs).

Experiment 2. Salient portion-to-response correspondence effect (e.g., spout plus second object location-to-response position corresponding vs. non-corresponding pairings) in the task-relevant alignment and misalignment for action (lower panel) and in task-irrelevant same and different category conditions (upper panel); mean normalized reaction times (RTs) and error rates (ERs).
