Spatial filtering restricts the attentional window during both singleton and feature-based visual search
We investigated whether spatial filtering can restrict attentional selectivity during visual search to a currently task-relevant attentional window....
-
A new technique for estimating the probability of attentional capture
Latency-based metrics of attentional capture are limited: They indicate whether or not capture occurred, but they do not indicate how often capture...

Intention matters more than attention: Item-method directed forgetting of items at attended and unattended locations
This study embedded attentional cues in the study phase of an item-method directed forgetting task. We used an unpredictive onset cue (Experiment
1 ),...

Cueing distraction: electrophysiological evidence for anticipatory active suppression of distractor location
It is well known that processing at upcoming target locations can be facilitated, but mixed results have been obtained regarding the inhibition of...

Task-specific engagement of object-based and space-based attention with spatiotemporally defined objects
We used a form of ambiguous apparent motion known as Ternus motion to isolate the effects of object-based and space-based attention, and to explore...

Building Experiments with Pygame
Pygame is a Python wrapper for the popular SDL multimedia library. It is suitable for tasks involving 2D graphics, sound, keyboard, etc. Pygame is...

No effect of autistic traits on social attention: evidence based on single-cue and conflicting-cues scenarios
Individuals often use others’ gaze and head directions to direct their attention. To investigate the influence of autistic traits on social...

Target frequency modulates object-based attention
Decades of research have provided evidence that object representations contribute to attentional selection. However, most evidence for object-based...

Working memory is updated by reallocation of resources from obsolete to new items
Visual working memory (VWM) resources are limited, placing constraints on how much visual information can be simultaneously retained. During visually...

Math anxiety and attention: Biased orienting to math symbols or less efficient attentional control?
Previous research about the existence of an attentional bias for math in highly math-anxious (HMA) individuals shows inconsistent results, and...

Visual working memory enhances target discrimination accuracy with single-item displays
The maintenance of information in visual working memory has been shown to bias the concurrent processing in favor of matching visual input. The...

Bayesian Graphical Modeling with the Circular Drift Diffusion Model
The circular drift-diffusion model (CDDM) is a sequential sampling model designed to account for decisions and response times in decision-making...
-
Endogenous cueing effects for detection can be accounted for by a decision model of selective attention
Spatial cues help participants detect a visual target when it appears at the cued location. One hypothesis for this cueing effect, called selective...

Control over attentional capture within 170 ms by long-term memory control settings: Evidence from the N2pc
Observers adopt attentional control settings (ACSs) based on their goals that guide the capture of attention: Searched-for stimuli capture attention,...

Effects of temporal and spatiotemporal cues on detection of dynamic road hazards
While driving, dangerous situations can occur quickly, and giving drivers extra time to respond may make the road safer for everyone. Extensive...

Vision at a glance: The role of attention in processing object-to-object categorical relations
When viewing a scene at a glance, the visual and categorical relations between objects in the scene are extracted rapidly. In the present study, the...

Enhanced detection of gaze toward an object: Sociocognitive influences on visual search
Another person’s gaze direction is a rich source of social information, especially eyes gazing toward prominent or relevant objects. To guide...

The misrepresentation of spatial uncertainty in visual search: Single- versus joint-distribution probability cues
The present study used information theory to quantify the extent to which different spatial cues conveyed the entropy associated with the identity...
-
A direct comparison of attentional orienting to spatial and temporal positions in visual working memory
Different visual attributes effectively guide attention to specific items in visual working memory (VWM), ensuring that particularly important memory...
