The Allocation of Attention: Theory and Evidence [PDF]

, 2003
A host of recent studies show that attention allocation has important economic consequences. This paper reports the first empirical test of a cost-benefit model of the endogenous allocation of attention. The model assumes that economic agents have finite mental processing speeds and cannot analyze all of the elements in complex problems.

Allocation of attention across saccades

Journal of Neurophysiology, 2012
Whenever the eyes move, spatial attention must keep track of the locations of targets as they shift on the retina. This study investigated transsaccadic updating of visual attention to cued targets. While observers prepared a saccade, we flashed an irrelevant, but salient, color cue in their visual periphery and measured the allocation of spatial ...

Dissociating Attention and Eye Movements in a Quantitative Analysis of Attention Allocation [PDF]

Frontiers in Psychology, 2017
In a recent paper, we introduced a method and equation for inferring the allocation of attention on a continuous scale. The size of the stimuli, the estimated size of the fovea, and the pattern of results implied that the subjects' responses reflected ...

The spatial allocation of attention in an interactive environment [PDF]

Cognitive Research, 2019
Inattentional blindness methods allow for an unobtrusive measure of the spatial distribution of attention; because subjects do not expect the critical object, they have no reason to devote attention to task-irrelevant regions in anticipation of it.

Perceived depth modulates allocation of attention

Scientific Reports
There is growing evidence that the visual system processes objects perceived as closer more quickly and accurately than those farther away, a phenomenon known as the “close advantage effect” (CAE).

Allocating attention to frequency regions [PDF]

Perception & Psychophysics, 1994
Three experiments were conducted to determine whether attention may be allocated to a specific frequency region. On each trial, a frequency cue was presented and was followed by a target tone. The cue indicated the most likely frequency of the forthcoming target about which the listeners were required to make a duration judgment.

Attention Allocation and Impression Formation [PDF]

Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, 1991
An experiment examined the attention allocation strategies that perceivers employ when they are confronted with expectancy-relevant information and the mediating roles that these strategies play in impression formation. A dichotic listening task was used to measure subjects' attention allocation strategies. Subjects monitored a control child in one ear,

Cognitive process underlying ultimatum game: An eye-tracking study from a dual-system perspective

Frontiers in Psychology, 2022
According to the dual-system theories, the decisions in an ultimatum game (UG) are governed by the automatic System 1 and the controlled System 2. The former drives the preference for fairness, whereas the latter drives the self-interest motive. However,

Adaptive Allocation of Attentional Gain [PDF]

The Journal of Neuroscience, 2009
Humans are adept at distinguishing between stimuli that are very similar, an ability that is particularly crucial when the outcome is of serious consequence (e.g., for a surgeon or air-traffic controller). Traditionally, selective attention was thought to facilitate perception by increasing the gain of sensory neurons tuned to the defining features of ...

Political Interpretation of Building a Maritime Power: An Analysis Based on Attention Allocation

Redai dili, 2022
In 2012, with the claimant countries of the South China Sea dispute stepping up their occupation of marine resources and the deep involvement of foreign powers in the South China Sea issue, the surrounding maritime situation became increasingly complex ...
