Template-to-distractor distinctiveness regulates visual search efficiency [PDF]
Current Opinion in Psychology, 2019 All models of attention include the concept of an attentional template (or a target or search template). The template is conceptualized as target information held in memory that is used for prioritizing sensory processing and determining if an object matches the target. It is frequently assumed that the template contains a veridical copy of the target.

Closing the Gap: Automated Distractor Generation in Japanese Language Testing
Education Sciences, 2023 Recent advances in natural language processing have increased interest in automatic question generation, particularly in education (e.g., math, biology, law, medicine, and languages) due to its efficiency in assessing comprehension.

Distractor onset but not preparation time affects the frequency of task confusions in task switching. [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2015 When participants rapidly switch between tasks that share the same stimuli and responses, task confusions (i.e., the accidental application of the wrong task) can occur. The present study investigated whether these task confusions result from failures of

Distractor familiarity leads to more efficient visual search for complex stimuli [PDF]
Perception & Psychophysics, 2005 Previous reports suggest that distractor familiarity plays an important role in determining visual search efficiency. However, the specific tasks used in those studies limit the extension of their findings to real-world situations and everyday images.

When is search for a static target among dynamic distractors efficient? [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2006 Intuitively, dynamic visual stimuli, such as moving objects or flashing lights, attract attention. Visual search tasks have revealed that dynamic targets among static distractors can indeed efficiently guide attention. The present study shows that the reverse case, a static target among dynamic distractors, allows for relatively efficient selection in ...

, 2022 The resemblance of distractors to sought-after items influences distractor encoding (Thomas & Williams, 2014; Williams, 2010a, 2010b; Williams, Henderson & Zacks, 2005) and biases attentional deployment towards high-resemblance distractors ...

Vision Research, 2014 We trained one group of pigeons to search for members of an artificial category among category-unspecified nonmembers. For another group of pigeons, the roles of the targets and of the distractors were reversed. Experiment 1 found that the latter group showed surprisingly efficient search for multiple nonmembers.
